It turned out that her brother had long been aware of Ni 'er's change of heart. Especially after Ni' er left home to stay with her fifth sister and cut off contact with him, he felt that something was amiss. Huang Qin, he was also prepared.
Ni 'er had two good friends in the village. One was the delicate flower of her east courtyard, and the other was the fairy of the west courtyard. The three of them were of the same age and were neighbors. The three girls could be said to be three flowers. Among them, Ni 'er's head was more prominent. She had a partner first, which made Jiao Hua and Fairy very envious and anxious.
Jiao Hua's eldest brother and fourth brother were volunteers. After the armistice in North Korea, the heroes had all returned home to rest. Sister-in-law brought Jiao Hua to the army to visit her brother. Once in the army, Jiao Hua's horizons were broadened. Good heavens, there were so many young and beautiful men in the volunteer army. Not to mention the soldiers, even the officers in their twenties were in groups, all of them handsome. Moreover, these people had risked their lives on the battlefield and had outstanding military achievements. However, most of them did not deal with personal problems. After returning to the country, the higher-ups advocated that under the premise of observing the "three major disciplines and eight points of attention", they should seize the opportunity to solve personal problems as soon as possible. The army had to provide some convenience, and the higher-ups had to take care of the subordinates. For a moment, it almost became a gust of wind. Very soon, many of the most adorable people found their beloved ones. Jiao Hua found a battalion commander from Shandong, who was her fourth brother's comrade. When Jiao Hua went home, she brought the battalion commander back. She needed to know where the girl grew up. The girls in the village were envious. "Jiao Hua has suddenly become the wife of an official.”For families with big girls, adults would go to Jiao Hua's house to ask for help."Introduce a military officer to our girl!”Jiao Hua also felt that it was too lonely to follow the army. It was a bit like " Zhaojun leaving the frontier fortress ", so she was willing to have a few companions. The first thing she thought of was Fairy and Ni 'er. Fairy, I heard that someone is introducing a platoon leader to Si Ge Zhuang. It's almost done. Don't think about it. Ni 'er is getting along with Brother Awu. Don't worry about it. Wang Zhaojun is married far away. She's alone. What can I do? Later, when Fifth Young Lady found out about this, she said,"It's so good to find an officer. In the future, we can bring him out and leave the countryside to enjoy a lifetime of happiness. What kind of job was driving a carriage? Wasn't it still farming in the countryside? An engagement was nothing. It was just a matter of one sentence.”She hesitated for a moment before Fifth Young Lady said,""It's not necessarily a bad thing for Awu. You're young, so you should grow up and be more ambitious. Would he have to work at home for the rest of his life?”
Her words first touched her mother. "You still know how to choose the best things when you're shopping. Who doesn't want a good son-in-law when they're looking for a husband?" There were officials who didn't go to work, farmers who didn't go to the city, farmers who went to the countryside, and those who didn't go to places where they could enjoy life but chose to stay in places where they suffered. What was the point? An engagement wasn't a marriage. Once the things were sent back, they could just forget about it.”
Ni 'er felt embarrassed. She was fine and did not get angry from the fight. How could she suddenly say something like that?
The fifth young lady saw that Ni 'er's head was unable to turn around and felt that it was reasonable for her younger sister to be unable to turn around in such a matter. So she said to her mother," I'll take her away. She'll stay at my place first. I'll slowly guide her and let her turn around slowly. As for Jiao Hua, he told her to tell him that it was over.”
The mother secretly admired her daughter's cleverness. She really did not go out to work for nothing! Thus, Ni 'er left the house with Fifth Young Lady and went to the city, saying that she was going to take care of Fifth Young Lady's child.
Not long after, the matchmaker came to her house with some gifts. She did not know if Ni 'er had changed her mind quickly after she arrived in the city, or if her family had arranged it in advance.
Even though his parents had the right attitude towards Ni 'er's family breaking off the engagement, he was still a little worried. However, they had also suffered a huge blow to their spirits. In this emotional battle, they had failed. She felt that she could not lift her head in front of the villagers. But why did he fail?
His father said to his mother,"It's been two or three years from the time of marriage to the time of annulment. They didn't do anything wrong, and we didn't do anything wrong either. The main reason is that our conditions are not good enough. If we were officers and earning money, she wouldn't be yellow even if you called her yellow.”
"Then what should we do? With this condition and identity, we won't be called daughters-in-law anymore.”
"There's a way. Cao Zhuang's second nephew is working in Qinghuangdao. I'll get someone to write him a letter and ask him to find a job for Awu in Qinghuangdao. Working in the city and earning money every month, who would dare to look down on them! At that time, I don't want anyone who's not better than Ni 'er!”
"That's good. Quickly find someone to write it!”her mother said happily.
"I've already written it," his father said. He took out an envelope that was already packed and took out a letter from it, saying,"Look, Big Brother Xia Zonglan wrote this.”
Her mother had never studied and was illiterate. She took the letter and read it again and again. It was written in black and white:
"Nephew Xianguang:
I see your face. Your cousin, Awu, has already grown into a young man. I hope you can find him a job in the city. Burning the boiler, sweeping the yard, guarding the door, anything.
sincerely
Uncle: Zhang Qingfeng
April 15, 1954."
Her mother was reading very seriously, even though she couldn't read a word. Actually, his father didn't recognize all of them either. He just read them out roughly as if he really recognized them. His mother was very happy when she heard that. She immediately said,"Then send it out quickly."”
Awu did not know that his father had sent a letter to his second cousin. Huang Qin's greatest blow to him was not because he lost Ni 'er's head from then on. It was not a pity to lose what he should lose. What shocked him the most was that for the first time, he felt despised. For the past few days, he had been the one to leave the car and run to Tang Shan. When he came back, he had also gone to the west room and never came out. In the spring of 1954, the government built a road from Tang Shan to Da Qing River, passing by Xiawangzhuang Village. After driving the car, there was nothing left to do. The cute little mule and cart were also sold by his cousin Cao Xianrong. Little Scorpion had worked for Ah Hui's family for five or six years, and he had made great contributions. He also had a lot of feelings for Ah Hui's family. After selling it for more than ten days, it suddenly ran back and entered its shed. When his mother saw it, she quickly collected some grass for it to eat and stroked its head with tears in her eyes…She didn't know what was going on. After a while, its new owner came and said,"This thing, I didn't notice. It pulled the reins away and ran over here.”His mother reined him in again, and the little mule was led away.
Awu had been driving for five or six years. He had sold his cart and his little mule. He was very disappointed and could not do any work. He felt that he couldn't stay in Xia Manor anymore. Even though he was the best in the village. However, he was still a farmer and was still looked down upon by others. I want to go out and go far, far away. If he didn't make a name for himself, he wouldn't be human. He sat on the edge of the Kang and thought to himself.
