Surabaya was the hometown of Confucius and Mencius. Since ancient times, it had been a land of spiritual talents, a place of natural treasures, simple folk customs, and rich cultural heritage.，Sixu County, an important town in the north of Jiangsu Province, was located on the north bank of the Si River. In front of him, the clear water flowed eastward, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds like a mirror. Thousands of sails were racing on the river, hundreds of boats were fighting, fishermen were rowing nets, and fishermen's songs were melodious. Both sides of the river were flat, and there were fields that stretched as far as the eye could see. Green waves rose and fell, auspicious birds flew, and the fragrance of grain spread. Not far away was the Huai River, one of the four major water systems in the country, Hongze Lake, one of the four freshwater lakes, and the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal that ran from north to south. The endless rivers and lakes nourished the vast North China Plain and nurtured generations of Sixu children. The land here was fertile, rich in products, densely populated, beautiful scenery, agriculture, forest, animal husbandry, sideline, fishing, and transportation. All industries were developed here. It was really a first-class place for living, working, and traveling.
Time had entered the 21st century. As the country's reform and opening policies continued to deepen, the economy of Sixu County developed rapidly, and the lives of the people continued to improve. Especially in the suburbs, farmers could grow grain and vegetables, work in the city, and do business. Their lives changed faster and better. As long as they did not encounter natural disasters or man-made disasters, their families would have ample food and clothing, and their lives would be worry-free.
Wang Dasheng and Zheng Xiaomei were a young couple who grew up in this precious place during this period. The two of them were classmates in middle school. After six years of studying together and living on campus, they had developed a good impression of each other from the first time they met. They had gotten to know each other, helped each other, loved each other, and even fell in love with each other. They had formed a deep friendship and a true love that was as firm as a rock. After graduating from high school, the two of them did not get into university. Soon after, they got married and finally fulfilled their wishes.
Da Sheng had a rectangular face, decent facial features, delicate eyebrows, a straight nose, a square mouth, a tall and strong body, a natural and unrestrained movement, and a modest language. He was gentle, gentle, reasonable, and understanding. Xiao Mei was tall, graceful, and beautiful. She had a pink face, peach cheeks, bright eyes, and white teeth. She was gentle, considerate, and unyielding. She was tenacious and brave. Not only were the two of them handsome and beautiful, but they were also kind-hearted, sincere, trustworthy, persistent in love, and healthy. They respected and loved each other in their lives, worked hard and frugally, and worked together to create a happy and beautiful future. When people saw that the two were so young and beautiful, matched, and had high aspirations, they all praised them as a "golden couple, a match made in heaven". However, the world was unpredictable. Calamity, the devil of a happy life and a harmonious family, often waited for an opportunity to strike. It took advantage of the situation and ruthlessly disrupted people's beautiful life plans. It brought a series of unimaginable pain and sorrow to the small family of Da Sheng and Xiao Mei, who had just been formed and had many beautiful wishes. Fortunately, they encountered good times and good policies. They were unyielding in the face of disasters and worked hard. They saw disasters as opportunities and turned grief into strength, courage, and wisdom. After experiencing pain and hardship, not only did they not become depressed, but they also seriously analyzed the reasons and learned from their experiences. They were not discouraged or discouraged. They worked hard and kept up with the trend of the times. They actively led their families to work hard. They worked together and adapted to local conditions. Finally, they found a way to get rid of poverty and become rich. He would benefit his family and become a well-known farmer entrepreneur in Jiangsu, Henan, and Shandong. His deeds were frequently reported by the media and spread widely, so that everyone knew him and praised him. It became a famous story and had a great influence.
The story started from their school days.
Dasheng's family lived in Wang Village in the eastern suburbs of Si Xu County, while Xiaomei's family lived in Zheng Village in the western suburbs of the county. There was only a county in between. In primary school, the two of them studied in the primary school in the village. They did not know each other and had no contact. After graduating from primary school, because both villages were in the suburban teaching area, by chance, the two of them were admitted to Sixu County High School together and were in the same class. From then on, they met each other frequently and had good feelings for each other. As time passed, their good impression of each other deepened. They admired each other and regretted not meeting each other earlier. In junior high, they were still young and were still good classmates. They liked each other and often wanted to get in touch with each other, unwilling to be separated. When they entered high school, as they grew older, they fell in love with each other. Their passion was hard to suppress, so they secretly fell in love. From letters to dates on Sunday, to going out in class and on campus, they were inseparable, and their relationship became increasingly close and sincere. This made many students in their class and neighboring classes envious. The male students admired Xiao Mei's charm and affection, while the female students admired Dasheng's sunshine, handsomeness, and gentleness. Therefore, each of them had many admirers and pursuers, like two huge magnetic fields that attracted many students from their class and neighboring classes. However, the two of them had a special liking for each other. They only loved each other and could not tolerate anyone else in their hearts. This caused other admirers and pursuers to lose the opportunity to express their love and pursue their love. It was inevitable that they would feel jealous and resentful. It was just that each student had a different temperament and the way they expressed their love was different.
In this battle for love, the most intense performance was their female classmate, study committee member Jin Yuying. Not only was this girl beautiful, but she was also smart and had excellent academic results. She admired Dasheng for being tall, handsome, kind, and affectionate. She had expressed her love many times, and her love letters were endless. Da Sheng knew what he meant but was unmoved. In the beginning, he tried his best to avoid contact with her. After a few times of avoiding her and pestering her, he had no choice but to go against his usual behavior and take another decisive measure to express his firm rejection to her face."Thank you for appreciating me. I'm really sorry. I already have the person I love the most in my life in my heart. We have admired each other for a long time. We have made an agreement and vowed to be together forever. We are as firm as a rock and will never change our hearts.”Yuying refused to give up. She grabbed Dasheng and said,"I know you love Xiao Mei. However, I advise you to keep your eyes open. Don't miss Mount Tai for a leaf, or a hundred flowers for a flower. He also had to understand that only by comparing could one differentiate. Take a good look and compare me carefully. In what way am I inferior to Zheng Xiaomei?”Wang Dasheng pushed Jin Yuying's hand away and said solemnly,""I know that you're outstanding in all aspects, especially in your studies. You're better than me and Xiao Mei. However, Xiao Mei and I are very infatuated and loyal. We have an appointment before, so we will never go back on our word. I still think Xiao Mei is the most suitable for me. Love was not about buying things. It was not easy to compare.”These words made Yuying tongue-tied, her face flushed red, and she was ashamed beyond words. After being rejected several times, Yuying could only shake her head and sigh, complaining that Dasheng was too loyal and Xiaomei was too lucky. From then on, he would no longer pursue life. However, she could not be at ease, willing, and give up. She felt that she had suffered a great defeat in front of Dasheng, Xiaomei, and many other students. She had lost a lot of face, and her image and reputation had been damaged. Therefore, she was furious and determined to take revenge to regain her lost face and prestige. She thought about it day and night, and then changed her strategy. She changed her love and spread red beans everywhere. She decided to find a more outstanding young man in the whole class and even the whole school who was more outstanding than the university students in terms of talent and appearance as her love partner. She wanted to suppress Xiao Mei's smugness and the disdain of the other students so that she could vent her anger. Once the idea was made, he immediately put it into action.
How could a beautiful and outstanding girl like Jin Yuying not have admirers? Of course, there were many people around. Moreover, she had taken the initiative to confess her love. When the male students saw that Zheng Xiaomei was only in love with Wang Dasheng, they all turned to Jin Yuying. They thought of all kinds of ways and means, whether publicly or secretly, to express their love and pursuit. Jin Yuying was naturally happy to have so many suitors and her wounded heart was healed. She even felt a little smug. She proudly said to Zheng Xiaomei,"Look, there are so many classmates who love me. I can choose the best among them. I don't have to worry about not being able to choose my Prince Charming." I think he must be the most handsome and wise in the school. The only one who loves you is Dasheng. I'm alone and have no choice.”Therefore, she pulled herself together and spread her love net. She chose the best from the best and won from the best. However, after a while, she took the initiative to retreat, feeling lost and troubled. Because her pursuers were all mixed and had different thoughts, they surrounded her like flies every day, causing her to be exhausted and unable to calm down to study. Her exam results had dropped significantly, and some students even called her a "study wimp." At this point, she suddenly realized that she was harming herself, degenerating herself, and harming others! Hence, they were all rejected. Actually, she did this after careful consideration and repeated comparisons. Because she always compared them with Wang Dasheng, comparing their looks, temperament, moral character, academic performance, and so on. After considering it all, she always felt that they were not as good as Wang Dasheng. Being with them did not elevate her status, and it made Dasheng and Xiaomei feel regretful. Therefore, she could not accept them. She quieted down and reflected on herself. She felt that she had let down Dasheng and Xiaomei by doing this. It's not wrong for others to be loyal and not accept you. He had planned to take revenge on others because he was too petty. He had measured a gentleman's stomach with a villain's heart. In the end, he had been harmed instead. It was really too unethical and disgraceful! In the days to come, she put away her wild thoughts and settled down to study. She resumed her original friendship with Dasheng and Xiaomei. However, he was always dissatisfied and indignant. He felt that fate was too unfair to him. Therefore, Jin Yuying was still alone and depressed until she graduated from high school.
In the late 1980s and early 1990s, the mainland's reform and opening up were still in the early stages. The country's economy was not rich enough, and there was very little money to support education. Although the country had restored the college entrance examination for many years, due to the ten-year cultural revolution, schools were the hardest hit areas. The losses caused were too great and heavy, and it was difficult to repair them in a short period of time. Therefore, regardless of whether it was in the countryside or in the city, the teaching conditions in schools were generally backward, especially for the majority of first-line teachers. They were seriously lacking, causing the improvement of teaching quality to be slow. In Sixu County, there were thousands of students, but only twenty to thirty of them were lucky enough to get into university every year.
Wang Dasheng and Zheng Xiaomei, perhaps because they fell in love too early and delayed their studies, did not get into university after graduating from high school. Even Jin Yuying, the class committee member who had always been outstanding in her studies, was not able to get into the exam. They had no choice but to return to their hometowns and families to help their parents farm and plant the contracted land. From then on, they left school and entered society, starting another practice and choice on their life path.
Although Dasheng and Xiaomei were separated, their hearts could not be separated. They were still tightly entangled. Although they could not meet and talk every day like in school, they kept thinking about each other day and night. Their hearts were connected, and they could always find a reason and opportunity to meet. For example, they went into the city to buy and sell things, visit relatives, friends, classmates, watch movies, and if they really had nothing to do, they would directly call for a date. In the fields, under the woods, and by the river, they often left their intimate shadows. In order to make it easier for them to talk, they each spent a lot of money to buy a cell phone. It was turned on 24 hours a day. No matter when and where, if there was anything, they would call each other. When they talked about their hearts, their feelings were lingering endlessly. Therefore, although they had left school, they still often gathered together to talk about love and plan for a better life in the future. Moreover, without the school's disciplinary system and the burden of homework, he was more comfortable, unrestrained, and carefree. Every time he entered the city, regardless of how big or small the matter was, he would always wait until it was dark before returning. In this way, the two of them fell in love for another two years. They both had a strong desire to be together. Therefore, with the consent of both parents, they first went to the township government to get a marriage certificate. Then, they chose an auspicious day to invite friends, relatives, and classmates to tie the knot. Dasheng was handsome and Xiaomei was pretty. The two of them wore custom-made wedding dresses and stood side by side. They hugged each other and bowed to their parents to thank them. Then they stood facing each other, looking at each other affectionately. They bowed to each other and got married. They were of one heart forever. After the wedding, a banquet was held to entertain the guests. The two of them, one holding a cigarette and the other holding a glass of wine, went to the banquet together to offer a toast. They were really a golden couple, complementing each other and bringing out the best in each other. They were a match made in heaven, causing the villagers to praise them. After the wedding banquet, friends and relatives spread the story everywhere. From then on, the story of Da Sheng Xiao Mei became a love story and became famous.
Because they were classmates, Jin Yuying was also invited to attend the wedding of Dasheng and Xiaomei. After the banquet, Yuying bade farewell and went home. The students and Xiaomei came out to see her off. Yuying held their hands and said affectionately,"Congratulations on your many years of love and marriage. From now on, I'm going to find my love and my way out.”Xiao Mei heard this and said,"When you get married, you must inform us as soon as possible. Big Sheng and I are waiting to drink your wedding wine."”Yu Ying shook her head and let out a long sigh."What marriage? Until now, I don't even have a partner.”After saying that, he looked at Dasheng with affection. Afraid of causing Xiao Mei to misunderstand, Big One broke free of Jin Yuying's hand and said,""You have excellent grades and are very beautiful. You will definitely find your love and prince charming.”Yu Ying was silent for a moment, then finally shook her head and said,""The countryside is not a school. It's difficult! "In the past two years, when I returned home, many people came to propose marriage. Although the children of farmers were simple and honest, they were generally uncultured and rarely had a common language. "The children of the officials are talented, but they don't like me. Those who aren't talented are mostly wanderers who don't seek progress. They are superficial and degenerate. They are flashy but flashy. I find it difficult to accept them. Just like this, it has been dragged on." She sighed again and said solemnly,"I've decided to leave my hometown and go to the south to work." It was the frontier of China's reform and opening up. The economy was developed, and there were many talents and opportunities. Perhaps I can find my love and way out there and realize my life's dream. Today, I came to congratulate you on your marriage and also to say goodbye.”Da Sheng felt that it was inappropriate and advised her,"Do you have to go to the south to work? There are also outsiders who come here to set up factories. Isn't it better to work locally and be close to home?”Yuying said," I've asked around. The factories that come here are small, the conditions are poor, and the wages are low. It's difficult for the workers to have a big development. The south was different. It was a special economic zone established by the country. There were many famous foreign companies, large factories, good conditions, abundant funds, and much higher wages for workers. Only by working there would he have a bright future. In addition, I also want to get rid of my family's interference and find my love and way out according to my own wishes.”After saying that, he hugged the two of them one by one, then waved his hand, turned around, and left without looking back.
Xiao Mei looked at Jin Yuying's disappearing figure and felt a sense of loss. After all, they were classmates for many years, and they were like brothers. Once they were far away, it would be difficult to see each other again. She couldn't help but feel a little disappointed and sorry. Xiao Mei said,"Although she thinks so, she might not be able to go." How could her parents be at ease when a girl went to such a distant place and was unfamiliar with the place? We must do our best to stop her." "It's difficult!" Da Sheng shook his head. Yuying was not an ordinary girl. Her parents might not be able to stop her from making her decision.”Sure enough, a few days later, news came that Jin Yuying had gone to the south to work alone. It was said that her parents did not listen to their persuasion and could not stop her, so they had to let her go. When Dasheng and Xiaomei heard this, they sighed repeatedly and pondered. "This might be an opportunity for Yuying," said Dasheng. She was arrogant and did not develop her career in her hometown all these years. With her personality, she would definitely work hard and strive to make a name for herself there.”Xiao Mei nodded because they all knew Jin Yuying's style of dealing with people. They could only silently wish her good luck on her way out to work.
