Not to mention that Mrs. Qi thinks life in the Jin family is worrying, even the Fourth Master looks really sad.
Went home all at once, cheering and cheering to the five young men.
There are advantages to being able to work hard, such as working, especially physical work done at home, such as fetching water, etc. The brothers take turns, so it is really not very tiring.
Although there are five brothers, only the third brother is doing the work.
The boss doesn't have to do it. He's too weak. I won't ask him to do it. The youngest, despite being big, is only sixteen years old.
Therefore, the only ones doing the work were the second, third, and fourth children in the middle. The Fourth Master thought, in Tongtong’s words, it’s called loving the older ones and loving the younger ones, and everyone in the middle will suffer.
Although I complain like this, when it comes to favoritism, it is really too much to say that there is no favoritism. There are a bunch of boys who don't have time to think about who loves whom.
With the third brother working, it shouldn’t be too tiring. But it depends on how you calculate it. The second brother is really honest when working. The third brother is very slippery. When it is his turn, he will either squat in the toilet and be unable to get out.
, or the person who went out to wander around the night before didn’t know which friend he stayed with, and they didn’t come back at all. Whoever wanted to do the work in the morning did it, he wasn’t at home, he didn’t care!
Then it's just him and the second child.
Because he wanted to talk to Tongtong, he had to borrow a bucket early and carry water. However, the second brother was pretty good at his job and never let him suffer.
He only came over to ask him to go when he got home. Sometimes when he saw that he was tired, he would ask him to do the work himself, and it was not just the Tongtong family that he was responsible for.
Speaking of which, young men are used to doing this, so it doesn't matter how tired they are.
He is willing to do this kind of work. What kind of work is he most afraid of? What should I do if there is a rip in my clothes? Let me sew it up?
dream!
Mrs. Jin is considered a tyrant at home. From the rooster crowing for the first time, she scolds Mr. Jin to get up, then she bangs the porcelain basin to get up her sons who want to stay in bed, and finally goes out to borrow things. First, she
Borrow a bucket, and then borrow something else. This includes a lot of things, such as a handful of salt and half a cup of vinegar, or you can go out and borrow a bowl of cornmeal or corn stubble when cooking. In this case
In this era, especially in rural areas, it is still common. I am in a hurry to use it, but I don’t have it. I grind the grain myself. I can’t take care of this meal, so I borrow some first. It’s common! There is a quota for grinding grain, so I’m afraid of eating it.
If you can't keep it, you won't be able to keep up with the grain in the end. The amount is fixed, so you have to eat sparingly. It's better to prepare less than to hide. In this way, in the end, the most common thing is the grain that is not ground at home.
What should I do? Carrying the bowl, I walked from house to house and went to the west. I borrowed it before putting it into the pot. I returned it after grinding the grain! This happened to other families, but it only happened once or twice a month, three or four times.
But in the Jin family's life, it is normal to live by borrowing money. Not to mention half of a month, ten days are spent outside borrowing money.
Anyway, if I borrow this or that, my life will never be smooth!
Think about it, there is not even a bucket for fetching water at home. They are all borrowed from other people's homes. Some people will lend the buckets, and some people will not lend them. A situation like Tongtong's is that the family does not have a bucket.
Those who are strong laborers. Whoever uses the bucket is responsible for fetching water for them. There is only one well in a village, and you have to walk another five or six hundred meters after exiting the alley. Those who have buckets and labor are not willing to lend them out.
.I feel that the shoulder pole and bucket are just a family property, and there is absolutely no problem in using them for two generations.
If you live your life carefully, you can live a good life. On the contrary, if you don't care about anything, you will be scolded for being careless when you ask others to use things.
Jin Lao Niang does this kind of judging people's faces every day, you think she can be in a good mood. Swearing is just to vent her emotions. The young man eats too much and gets angry when he sees it! It is also because of this that she curses from morning to night.
It hovers over the Jin family, rarely stopping.
You said that under such circumstances, if the clothes are torn or torn, how dare you take them over? I can jump to the roof! I also cursed! What is called a donkey, what is a prodigal, what is ugly, what is the curse! Half a piece
You can hear it in the alley. I am afraid of being scolded. I have learned how to thread a needle and thread. The stitches are not good-looking, and my clothes will not be torn and exposed.
Who washes the clothes when they are dirty? Mrs. Jin scolded her and said, "...you guys are going to be dirty and smelly... Anyway, I won't wash them... If not, just run away with your butt naked... I'll take care of the old and the young."
, I owed you something in my previous life or it was your turn, debt collectors one by one..."
The curses couldn't stop within two hours.
The younger ones - her sons, hid in a daze.
The old one - her parents-in-law, was paralyzed on the kang. They had nowhere to hide. They had to endure it!
The Fourth Master has never been scolded like this before. At first, the Fourth Master washed his own clothes, put them in the water, twisted them, and carried them out. But after washing, he found that the clothes were not dry yet, so he was changed by the Third Brother and put them on.
The dirty clothes are still thrown there.
No! If you wear it, you will wear it. Wearing clothes that are not dry will make you sick.
And he discovered that since he started washing clothes, his clothes were always dirty, while the other four brothers were all neat and tidy when they went out.
Come on! He won't wash it either. If you want to get dirty, just get dirty. Let's get dirty together.
As a result, he stopped washing, and just like the other brothers, he dropped the bowl and ran away. Looking at the pile of dirty clothes, Mrs. Jin ran to the alley and yelled, but no one came back.
Instead of scolding his son, he scolded the old man in the family, Old Man Jin. He couldn't bear it anymore, so his father started to do it again.
It is rare for men to do such work in other families, but in today's Jin family, there is nothing strange about it.
Anyway, Old Man Jin actually did most of the work at home. For example, cooking. When Old Man Jin was young, he served as a company commander in the Kuomintang. Later, in April of 1949, he joined the army.
There was an uprising. In the 1950s and 1960s, the army seemed to have been dismantled and reorganized. The former company commander of the national army became the squad leader of the army's cooking class. In the army, that was in the cafeteria.
I have cooked before. Jin Lao Niang also joined the army. Later, not only did she have more children, but the army was also very miserable and she couldn't take care of her. So Jin Lao Niang came back with her children. In fact, she had an allowance for one person.
, raising children in my hometown, I can still live a good life. But when it came to the "Three Antis and Five Antis", Old Man Jin was fired and sent home because he was reported to have embezzled half a bowl of mung beans. Originally, this man who had revolted before the founding of the People's Republic of China was
Some people were later paid according to the old revolution. Just because of that half bowl of mung beans, they ended up in a disgraceful way. They didn't get any treatment.
In the National Army, when he was young, he was an officer. He didn't dare to do any work, so he spent his days playing mahjong. Later, after liberation, the first job he learned to do was cooking. Therefore, in
At home, the cooking work was Old Man Jin's. Now the laundry work has also become his.
What Old Man Jin always talks about at home is, "I have also lived the life of a young master for a few years..."
Why do you say that?
Counting up the Jin family, they are really from landlords.
Old Man Jin’s name is Jin Ximin, and now we call him Old Man. In fact, at this age, in terms of average life expectancy, he is considered an old man at the age of fifty. If we talk about thirty years from now, he will still be considered a middle-aged man at the age of fifty.
ranks.
Old Man Jin, who can barely be considered an old man, his father is still alive, but he is not very mobile and is lying on the kang. He is almost 70 years old. He can't see his eyes and can't move his body, but he is still strong.
Living. If old man Jin can be regarded as a young master, then his father is an authentic young master.
His father was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. At that time, the Jin family was considered a first-class family in this town. Not to mention half of the shops in the town were owned by the Jin family, but a third.
It belongs to their family. The alley where they live now, together with the house behind it named Jinjiaxiang, all belong to the Jin family. Moreover, this old man who is still strong and alive is the only child in the family.
One of them happens to be a boy. He has such a huge family property, dozens of acres of houses, covered with pine trees, and built with dang-dang pavilions. As a result, this child didn't learn well. What's wrong? He learned to smoke cigarettes.
!
Old Man Jin and his grandfather, that is, the old man of the Jin family and his father who are lying on the kang now, are the ancestors who made this big business. When they saw that this was not going to work, they would definitely not be able to learn well if they continued like this. What should I do?
?I told my son about a powerful wife. This wife, Mrs. Jin, who is still alive today, is the daughter of the thieves. The thieves are bandits! The world was in chaos at that time, and bandits were semi-public.
Live your life as you should, the police and criminals are all members of the same family. They are also powerful families in the local area.
I spent a lot of money in gifts and hired someone else's daughter. At that time, this girl was riding on a big horse and walking around the streets with a whip around her waist. Such a powerful wife should be able to control her son.
Come on. Besides, when this girl came in, the dowry was spread out. It was even more than the original betrothal gift.
This daughter-in-law is well married! It’s a good deal to marry!
A year after I entered the house, another male was added to the family. This male is the old man Jin Ximin who now washes clothes for his sons. The ancestors were very happy. It has been passed down from generation to generation. With a male, the family will be safe. For this
How can the ancestor Jin Sun not be pampered? He wants the stars but not the moon!
Old Man Jin remembered what happened when he was a child, and how much his grandfather doted on him at that time. That's why he always said that he had lived through the life of a young master for several years.
However, the good times of the Jin family did not last long. After the daughter-in-law, who was born as a thief, added a granddaughter to the family, something happened to the family.
Where to start? Let’s start with the story that the daughter-in-law of a thieves family brought a granddaughter to the Jin family.
The child is one month old, and the child's grandpa's family is here to have a wedding banquet. The ancestor is actually quite happy to be a grandfather again. Regardless of whether she is a daughter or not, for several generations of the Jin family, there is only one single child.
Genmiao. Now that she has a daughter, she is very happy. She said that there will be relatives in the family in the future.
Four plates and eight bowls were placed on the table, and the two in-laws drank.
The bandit grandpa talked about going out to sell goods, saying this goods and that goods, what is the price there, what is the price here, and how much money can be made on this trip... When Patriarch Jin heard this
, my heart is so hot. After one transaction, my family has been working hard to save for three years.
Just as he was thinking about how to say this, his bandit grandfather was very generous and said, "In-laws! Who among us is following whom? If you really want to do it, I will give it to you by the way."
When Patriarch Jin heard this, he slapped his thigh. This is good! There is nothing better than this. He was born as a thief, so he didn't have to worry about the safety of the goods on the road. He was a man of justice, so he couldn't be vague. He was also very sincere and paid for the goods.
All given to others.
Speaking of being a family, our son, his daughter, and his grandchildren are our own, but they are also his biological grandchildren. What can we not trust in such real relatives? Besides, do they lack money?
Not bad!
I didn’t look at the whole process of marrying off a girl. It’s just that the dowry is a complete package, and the shop and the land are also included in the dowry. Whoever is short of money is also short of money. If you don’t have money, just rob it, just rob outsiders, and you can also attack your own family.
Start?
Hey!
It was only a matter of seconds before the old man took the money and sent his men and horses away, completely running away.
Where did it go?
Who knows. I haven’t heard anything from him in the next few decades. Anyway, he just disappeared.
Because the Nationalist Government at that time began to station troops here, the bandits got the news in advance and ran away. Why couldn't they find out the news later? Because after the garrison arrived, they reported directly to the superiors how many bandits had been wiped out.
Wait, the leader of the thief, so-and-so, was executed by firing squad on such-and-such month and day of such-and-such year.
According to official information, this bandit grandpa was the target of execution.
Then you go out to find someone, this liar and robber, in a big way?
Isn't this a problem with the garrison? Those who should receive merit should receive merit, and those who should be promoted should be promoted. I heard that because they signed up for war, they also got an extra set of weapons.
Everyone from top to bottom is saying this, so what else can you do?
You have to admit it even if you don’t.
If you search further, people will become impatient. You are making everyone unhappy! If what you say is true, then our bandit suppression will be fake. The Jin family still has some wealth.
For the sake of the government, they did not use force and persuaded him to go back in a good voice. Only later, some people said that Jin Laozu was crazy. They said that he was lending money at usury, and he could not take back the money he had given us. So this person
There's something wrong with this brain.
You say he is such a decent person. Not only one of the best in the town, but also one of the top five, even the county magistrate, invited him to talk and have tea. Now this hard work of half a lifetime has finally come to an end.
It's just that his whole life was reduced to nothing, and he was labeled as a lunatic.
He couldn't figure it out! He had to think narrowly about anyone.
I couldn't figure it out at first, and besides, the people I met when I was out of the house with whom I had made friends before, all treated him as a patient and coaxed him to give in. Some of them even teased him with evil intentions.
The angrier he got, the harder these people laughed, the more energetic they talked, and the more they thought he looked like a madman.
So Patriarch Jin went crazy.
No one knows how crazy he is. Anyway, the old people who are still alive today will say that Patriarch Jin is a lunatic when he talks about it. He went crazy because he didn’t get back the usury loan.
Due to this madness, the son of the family, Mr. Jin, Old Man Jin’s father, was completely out of control.
In the past, my wife was great. With my wife taking care of me and my dad holding me down, it would be better. Now that my dad is crazy, will my wife dare to take care of her? My parents have done such outrageous things. My family even told you to screw up. Why are you still here?
Dare you take care of me? If you have seen my father, then your father will be harmed. If you say one more thing, believe it or not, I will divorce you immediately, send you to the police station, and say you are a robber.
Mrs. Jin was young at that time, and her daughter-in-law was afraid. She used to be very powerful in her husband's family, because her mother's family had a powerful father to support her. When she came home, her father-in-law gave her a decree, which was to discipline the man severely. But now? All of them.
What should I do now that I have nothing to rely on? Just keep your tail between your legs and be a human being.
Isn’t it just smoking? Smoking!
No money? No problem! Sell the shop and the land! No more? No problem! Where is the house owned by the boss of my family? It is being sold off one by one. It can last for several years.
It’s true! If you don’t engage in production, eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, and before old man Jin grows up, the inheritance that your ancestors have worked so hard to save will be completely lost.
When Old Man Jin became an adult, the only thing sold in the family was the main house where he usually lived. At that time, Old Ancestor Jin’s health was not very good, and his mind was slowly getting clearer. After all, he was not sick.
When you were a very capable person, what should you do when you see this situation?
We might as well sell the last main house, leaving only this piece of land opposite the house across the alley. There is two or three pieces of land, and a thatched house can be built as a yard. What should I do with the last money?
What? Asking for help! I begged grandpa and grandma everywhere, but my grandson, now Old Man Jin, was sent to be a soldier. As soon as he went there, he became a commander instead of starting as a big soldier. All the remaining money was spent on
It will be used to smoothen the relationship with the grandson in the future. Not even a cent will be left for the prodigal son!
This matter was done, and within three days, Patriarch Jin kicked off his legs and went to the Paradise of Paradise.
This man is a ruthless man. He knew that his health was in danger, but he didn't even leave him the money to buy a coffin. He even left a message. First, don't notify him of his grandson's return. He will wait three years after his death.
Mention it to his grandson. Secondly, instead of holding a funeral, he made a mat of reeds and hung it under the eaves. Just use that to bury him in a roll.
So in accordance with the instructions, this talented man who had made countless money, spent the last copper in his family before his death, and left only two thatched houses and a dilapidated yard for his son, was buried with a roll of mat.
When the ancestor died, Mr. Jin was dumbfounded.
If your father dies and your son becomes a soldier, how will your family live?
After much deliberation, I decided to target the family's thieves-in-law. My wife's dowry back then was quite a lot. Although a lot of it was squandered, I'm afraid a lot of it was secretly hidden. At least she didn't have a lot of gold jewelry.
See you.
So, by selling! The old lady sold the little gold as the jewelry she missed.
But the remaining dowry only lasted for Huo Huo for two years, and he had no chance to think about Huo Huo again! Of course, there was nothing left for Huo Huo.
You are liberated! You are no longer interested in eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, and smoking!
Mr. La from the Jin family said that this liberation is good. No matter what happens, the government will not let people starve to death. Life can always go on!
Is it time for my son to get a wife? It’s okay! My son is a soldier. Soldiers were very popular at that time. Revolutionary soldiers! There are a lot of girls waiting. So I told a family named Meng three miles away from the town.
This is the current Aunt Jin, Mrs. Jin. Her maiden name is Meng. When she got married, there were eight brothers and sisters in her natal family. When she got married and gave birth to her eldest son, Jin Mancheng, her natal mother gave birth to the ninth child.
When she gave birth to her second child, her mother gave birth to a tenth child. Anyway, there are many brothers and sisters in the family. She is the eldest daughter. This kind of girl, if nothing else can be done, must be a caregiver.
After spending two years as a dowry for Mrs. Jin, a woman from a thieves' family, Mr. Jin became angry. He couldn't speak much about his son's marriage. Mrs. Jin said that this kind of girl who can take care of others is good.
, my son is a young master, and he needs a girl who can take care of everything. That’s okay! It’s settled.
The old lady took out the last gold ring hidden in the crack in the wall, secretly exchanged two bags of grain with someone, and then got her son's wife back.
After getting married, isn’t this son still in the army? Send him away! Send him away quickly! It’s so pitiful that he has no one to take care of him and he doesn’t know what to do.
But who will take care of the family after the daughter-in-law leaves? The son will soon be the breadwinner, and he won't be able to subsidize the family.
Mr. Jin refused to let him go at first, but Mrs. Jin became tough and insisted on sending his new wife away.
Sent it, right?
It's okay! The old man has a trick!
After Mrs. Jin gave birth to her eldest daughter, she gave birth to a second daughter and a third daughter. The three daughters in the family are next to each other. Aren’t they all grown up?
The eldest daughter is sixteen, and her grandpa has named her Jin Ximei. She is petite and petite, and looks as fresh as a flower.
It’s really hard to live this life, we are so poor! If we can’t eat well, we won’t have enough to eat. The government won’t ask us to starve to death, but lazy people, we can’t even eat as much as we want!
what to do?
Marry your daughter!
The eldest son-in-law I am looking for is almost thirty. His family is poor and he is an old bachelor. The poorer he is, the harder it is to find a wife. The longer he delays, the older he gets, and it becomes even more difficult to find a wife.
The mother-in-law of the family was also worried. At that time, people had just come out of the old society, and people’s ideology was just like that. Half a life has passed at the age of thirty. I don’t have a wife yet, what should I do? Take the old bachelor’s three
A sister was sold... It doesn't sound good to say sold, but in fact it was sold. Anyway, the husband's house she was looking for was far away, and it took a day and a night to get there. In the Nanshan ravine, the three girls each exchanged for a donkey.
One pig and three bags of grain. These things were given to Mr. Jin in exchange for the eldest daughter of the Jin family, his aunt Jin Mandu.
In other words, the Jin family is full of strange people. Jin Ximei, the eldest aunt of the Jin family, can be regarded as a strange person among strange people.
What's wrong? It turns out that the yard where the Jin family lives now is a place reserved for parking carriages in front of a wealthy family like the Jin family. It is very spacious. The row of houses directly opposite the yard have been here for more than ten years.
It was just added. In the early years, this was a city wall.
Don't look at this small Ping'an Town. The original city wall built with earth is also square. The roads in the town are also horizontal and vertical, and the east, west, north and south are particularly well planned. I heard that the history can be traced back to the Ming Dynasty.
It’s just that in the past ten years, the old buildings have been completely destroyed. The city walls were in ruins, and no one would even think about repairing them. Some of them were simply torn down and houses were built on them, so it was originally just a simple building.
The alleys in rows have become door-to-door alleys.
The house next door to Jin's house was originally ownerless, but later everyone moved here, and now there are neighbors. House after house, they are slowly being built.
The neighbor to the east lives a father and son named Zheng. They came to Ping'an Town to beg for food in the early years. They usually lived under the old city wall. They dug a hole and lived in it. Liberation, isn't this right?
Ping'an Town was settled. The narrow strip of land next to Jin's house was allocated to the father and son.
The Zheng family and the Jin family live next to each other. The Zheng family's son is two years older than the Jin family's Ximei. They are childhood sweethearts. The courtyard wall at that time was low, and you could talk by leaning on the wall. They were two little people.
, as time goes by, mutual affection is inevitable.
The two children are said to be quite good. The Zheng family is poor and comes from a beggar background. There is no foundation here, but their son is good-looking. He is 1.8 meters tall and has a square face with thick eyebrows and big eyes. In this era, he is the standard beauty.
When a man goes to that station, people will feel that he has a dignified appearance. He must be the kind of person who performs on the stage and feels that he is a positive character as soon as he appears on the stage.
This kind of person - a male god!
The male idol is very capable, what can he do? He can drive a big car.
Of course, the fourth master can also drive a cart. I won’t show off this. Let’s just say that in those days, there were more oxen who could drive a cart than those who can drive now! How many horses were raised in a town at that time?
It’s just that the little beggar has a hard life. When he sees the carriage, he knows that it is rich. If he gets close to him, he can get food. He rushes up without his life. After a long time, doesn’t he realize this? In fact, the horse is not as strong as he saw.
It's scary. There are horses in the town. If you go to the county town to pick up someone or transport something, no one knows how to drive a horse. He is so narrow-minded that others are afraid of him but not him. He is a self-taught man and knows how to do it.
You said that under these conditions, they are of similar age and appearance, they are a good match, and they live next door. When the son is not around all year round, is it a good match for him to marry his daughter?
Absolutely! But I just can’t come up with the bride price. It’s difficult for those who get married to get the subsidies back!
Mr. Jin was determined not to do so, so he beat the couple apart and separated the young lovers. For the sake of the bride price, he blindly married off his eldest daughter, Ximei, to an old bachelor.
But this Ximei also has an idea. She refused to make troubles before marriage. She hanged herself and went on a hunger strike one by one. However, Mr. Jin has a heart of iron. He has to be buried in his ancestral graves when he dies. Anyway, you and I will give you the betrothal gift.
Accept it. You don't want to go? If you don't go, our whole family, including your two sisters, will starve to death. Will you die? Or will our family die? I, the father, don't choose this, but you will choose? You want to die?
Just die? If you want us to die, then we will die?
Jin Ximei was only sixteen years old! The little girl was frightened!
This one dies, that one dies! Why die? No more death!
I got married after I died. I didn’t even get a new suit of clothes as a dowry, so I was taken home by an old bachelor. The old bachelor was also from Ping’an Town. The Jin family lived on East Street, and the others lived on West Street. Walking there, ten
It took five minutes. A thirty-year-old man took a sixteen-year-old daughter-in-law home. The rest of his life was supposed to be a life of various adjustments, right?
No!
The eldest girl of the Jin family has an idea. She hates her father at home, and she hates the old bachelor who married her even more. The resentment in her heart cannot be dissipated, and she expresses her anger in various ways. She is still thinking about her neighbor next door.
Where is my male god brother?
What should I do? The little girl is so naive! She thought to herself, it would be great if this man died. If he died, he would be able to go back. So they started taking action from the second day after the wedding. The new daughter-in-law would do it when she entered the house.
You have to cook three meals a day. This is what people do: I heard that this herb is poisonous and makes people vomit after eating it. Does this mean that if you eat too much, you will be poisoned and die? How about giving it a try?
Before adding rice to the water for making porridge, put the grass in it and boil it, and then use this 'poisonous' water to make porridge.
Think about it, the smell of this grass is not very wonderful. There is no so-called colorless and odorless herb. Who can't smell such a strong smell? Even the neighbors on both sides have smelled it, and asked who is in the house?
Sick? Why did my son take medicine the day after his wedding?
The husband's family didn't think much about it at the time. They thought they had misplaced some wild vegetables. After all, the Jin family was once so prominent. Even if they were defeated, they still had family property to lose. The girl's family had never eaten wild vegetables before.
When I asked my new wife, she shut up and bowed her head without saying a word.
I'm young and a new wife, so I can understand.
But the situation didn't get much better after that, but instead of targeting the whole family, she started targeting her old husband. Either the firewood came out of the porridge, or the bottom of the bowl seemed to taste a bit like lime.
Ouch! This is incredible! You say this was unintentional? Who would believe it?
They all said that they lived in Dongxi Street, so they knew each other relatively well. The girl from the Jin family and the boy from the Zheng family couldn't hide their things. In addition, they were making trouble before marriage.
I’ve heard about it all. But I really can’t find a wife here, so I’m worried. Once this woman gets married and gives birth to a child, that matter is over. Who will still hold on to it for the rest of her life? As long as she can continue the family line by marrying into the family, light the lamp at night.
As long as there is a woman sleeping under the quilt at the back, who cares who this woman has in mind.
But I can care less about other things, but I have to care about this matter.
This time it’s lime, what about next time? If you don’t deal with it any time and just give me a pack of rat poison, are you saying that you died unjustly?
Don't give it up! Send her back to your parents' home! My family can't afford such a daughter-in-law. If you return the bride price to my family, we can find another one with the bride price.
Can Mr. Jin do this?
Fuck you! My daughter was a young lady when she got married. Now your son is sleeping in bed, and you have done everything you should and should not do. You said you want to return it, and you still want a bride price?
Let's go, let's ask the government to comment. Is there anyone who plays tricks on women like this?
This is a serious crime.
Everyone there is scared! I told you to refund half of the bride price, and then my family will find a widow or something as a wife, and my son will not suffer any loss. Anyway, he has slept with a yellow-flowered girl in his life.
Half? A dream! The quarrel between the two families has alarmed the entire town of Murakami. Now there is a director of the Women's Federation, who is in charge of affairs. He has spoken out, but the first person to sympathize is with the oppressed and suffering Comrade Jin Ximei.
You see, coming from such a family, being sold by the parents, life in the husband's family is not going well. The husband's family said that the little girl intended to murder, which is a bit serious! You want to kill someone with a bag of lime?
Nonsense! If someone really wants to kill you, a pack of rat poison would have been dealt with long ago, right?
It's just that the little girl is young and has experienced such a tragic thing, so she feels very angry. It's not the kind of mistake that cannot be forgiven. It's better not to go on the line like this.
People also asked Jin Ximei, saying that she would rather demolish ten temples than destroy a family. If you think you can still live with it, then continue to live with it.
Before Jin Ximei could say anything, her mother-in-law gave up and started crying. She said, "Our family really doesn't dare to have such a daughter-in-law. I'm afraid that if we continue to live like this, the whole family won't be able to sleep at night."
He said that he would only pay back half of the betrothal gift, so let's forget it.
But if Jin Ximei still refuses to leave, she won’t leave!
The person in charge said, let's think about it first and mediate in a few days.
Jin Ximei was supposed to eat and sleep at her husband's house. When she woke up, she would stare at the old bachelor man and look at her secretly. The man couldn't stand it anymore and cried and begged her mother, "Tell her to go!"
He wants his life more than his wife's.
Come on! Jin Ximei's marriage lasted only ten days and ended without paying back a penny of the bride price.
Even Mr. Jin had nothing to say. He kept slapping his mouth, but he didn't dare to speak. He was afraid that this stupid thing would attack his own father at some point.
When I got home, she said with a slumped face that she was going to marry next door the next day, so Mr. Jin said, go ahead if you want.
So just like that, Jin Ximei moved into Zheng's house the day after returning from her husband's house.
No matter how troublesome the process was, the result was that the Jin family had this gift and could not starve to death for another two years.
As for the aunt Jin Ximei, she and her little lover brother did live a relatively sweet life. After marriage, they gave birth to two sons. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. When she was pregnant with the third one, this handsome man of the Zheng family was sending summer grain.
On the way, he died unexpectedly. He was driving a carriage and passed through the half-collapsed city gate. Unfortunately, the half-collapsed city gate that had been holding firm collapsed all of a sudden. He and the whole cart of food were taken away.
They were all buried inside. When they were pulled out from inside, they were already lifeless.
We’ll talk about the rest later, let’s just say that Mr. Jin sold his daughter once, and the daughter resisted, but she was stunned to get the job done, and she did as she pleased, but if she did as she pleased, her life would not necessarily be the same.
She would really be able to live a smooth life until old age. Anyway, the person she wanted to marry was gone, and the old bachelor she despised back then found a widow with two daughters, and her life was pretty good.
It's booming.
Of course, this is all for later.
When the old man squandered his eldest daughter's betrothal gift money and then wanted to marry his second daughter, he didn't think there was anything wrong with his behavior at that time. The eldest daughter earned a betrothal gift, but in the end she was very happy both physically and mentally.
Well. At that time, he didn't know that his eldest son-in-law was short-lived. The most common sentence in his mouth was that people are poor and have a hard life. A beggar who is poor enough will definitely have a hard life.
The old man felt that the process was not good, but the ending was still wonderful. He married the second daughter with the bride price of the eldest daughter, and got a son-in-law who was more than ten years older than his daughter.
The second daughter of the Jin family, also known as the second aunt, Jin Xiju, is seventeen to twenty-nine years old. The age difference has narrowed. The husband's family is in Shangqin Village, which is under the jurisdiction of Ping'an Town, about ten years away from the town.
At that time, girls in the town could ask for more betrothal gifts than those in the village. No one knows how much the Jin family asked for this time, but the situation of the second uncle's family was special, and they were really poor if they were poor, but
It’s not that the person has a problem with not being able to marry a wife, but that it’s time to divide the land. This family belongs to the kind of small landowners. It’s not time to divide the land yet, but generally speaking, they are the type of people who need to be united. Follow
The vast majority of people who suffer and are oppressed are not of the same type.
The Qin family in Shangqin Village, if it had been in the past, the Jin family would not have pinched others with their eyes. With a million in savings, would you dare to call yourself rich in the eyes of a billionaire?
This is the contrast between the two families. Speaking of which, the Qin family only started to grow slowly three to five years before liberation. The land in the family was bought from the old man of the Jin family, a prodigal son, and the total number of communists was just that.
Eighty acres. I pretend to others that my family has one hundred acres of land. I lie on the big kang all day long with my eyes closed, doing nothing, and eat white steamed buns every day.
Blow! Play!
I haven’t eaten white steamed buns for two years, it’s a waste!
Liberated!
What a bad luck! The landowners are being attacked to divide their land! His family is the first to suffer!
Then, I have to say that this fate is so ridiculous for him sometimes. The small landowner of the Qin family was knocked down! But the big landowner of the Jin family was so lucky that he escaped!
Thanks to the old man of the Jin family who had all the food, drink, prostitution, gambling and gambling. That family must have been defeated. Anyway, two years before liberation, there was only one thatched house left in the family. They are not considered landlords at all.
