The original owner, Qi Sheng, was the third eldest in the family, and there were two elder brothers above him. In the 1960s, every family was poor. There were three boys in their family, and the top of them could eat, and the eldest and the second both married. After losing a daughter-in-law, the whole family is together, so it is inevitable that there will not be much left.
There has always been a custom in the countryside that the eldest son will provide for the elderly, so the old couple is more partial to the eldest, but they are kind to the other two sons. After marrying the second son a wife, they began to save money for the younger son.
The plan was good at first, but unfortunately, before Qi Sheng got married, the old couple of the Qi family passed away one after another.
Qi Sheng's eldest brother and sister-in-law grabbed the things left by the second elder in their hands, and together with Qi's second son, no one mentioned the matter of marrying Qi Sheng to a daughter-in-law.
Qi Sheng is not easy to kill either, the centimeters and food he has earned all these years have been handed over to the public, and now he has no way to give him any cents.
In short, in the end, Qi Sheng and his two brothers had a bad fight, so they barely shared a room and two bags of food. After the things were divided, the relationship between the brothers was gone.
Qi Sheng doesn't care if the brothers make trouble like this, he is alone, and he is a young and strong guy, he is afraid that he won't be able to support himself. So in addition to earning centimeters on time, he also went to work for a cook in a state-run restaurant for free with a good eye. He didn't want to do anything else, he could learn more skills from the cook, and he could also walk in many ways. After working hard like this for two years, he saved a little food. He has some skills.
Qi Sheng's life was getting better day by day, and there were more and more people willing to find him as son-in-law, but at that time Qi Sheng had no elders to take care of him, and was fascinated by an educated youth from the village who went to the countryside. That educated youth was really beautiful, Although the work is not very good, but Qi Sheng is determined to marry her.
The life of the female educated youth was already difficult. Her father died during the criticism, and her mother was sent to another village to be rehabilitated. When she was helpless, Qi Sheng, a strong and honest man, pursued her. It was a matter of course that they came together.
The villagers joked that Qi Sheng was obsessed with sex, had a narrow eyelid, had a falling out with his brother at home, and married a foreign wife who had no roots.
But at that time, Qi Sheng was young and energetic, thinking that he could make the family live a good life by himself.
In the first two years, Qi Sheng's life was really good. His daughter-in-law was good-looking and clean. Although she couldn't earn a few centimeters in the field, the house was always tidy. The two gave birth to another child within a year of their marriage. Big fat boy, his family is happy and happy, he has a good career outside, the work in the field is not a problem, and he can go to the restaurant to help with work to get a little oily.
In short, because of Qi Sheng's steadfastness and hard work, the family of three was not only not hungry in this age when food was generally not enough, but they could also eat meat once in a while.
It's a pity that within two years of good times, his wife died of dystocia when she gave birth to her second son. Before he could recover from the sadness, the cook he followed was also sent to the prison for taking things from the public house in private. Although he didn't participate in the prison and didn't know about it, he was completely blacklisted by that restaurant because of his close relationship with the cook.
The family was in trouble one after another, and Qi Sheng lost his joy when he saw his youngest son who was still in his infancy.
At that time, he went to work in the fields during the day, and his sister-in-law next door helped take care of the two children, but every time he returned home, he didn't have a hot meal, and he had to take care of the food and drink of the two sons.
Fortunately, he still has a lot of strength, and he is good at earning work points in the field. Young girls look down on him, but there are also widows who are living in hardship or girls with some problems who are willing to marry him.
Qi Sheng couldn't bear the busy days at home and abroad, so after someone introduced him, he married Zhang Fen, a young widow from the next village.
Zhang Fen also has a hard life. Her first husband was lazy and liked to beat others. He was beaten at a young age and had two miscarriages. Don't care about this, Zhang Fen really can't find a better condition than Qi Sheng.
Qi Sheng is quite satisfied with Zhang Fen, although she is not as beautiful as his first wife, but at least she is pretty, plus she can work, and is diligent at home, because knowing that the inability to have children in the future will also affect his two sons. very good.
The couple lived together hand in hand, and life gradually got better.
Until the youngest son was eight years old, Qi Xiangnan and Zhang Fen mother and son went to the town to go to the market. Unfortunately, Zhang Fen was directly hit to death by a passing tractor.
When Qi Sheng heard the news and went to look for him, apart from his youngest son who was sitting beside Zhang Fen's corpse, there were only a few onlookers watching the excitement.
The tractor had long since disappeared, and Qi Sheng couldn't find the culprit, so he had to hastily bury his second wife.
Originally, he just thought that his life was miserable and unlucky, but at some point, rumors began to circulate in the village that his youngest son's life was hard to beat others. Those people said that they had both eyes and ears. The son was fine, and he said that when his wife gave birth to a second child, it should have been easier, but she died of dystocia...
Qi Sheng already felt that his life was uncertain, but now listening to these rumors, he seemed to have found the truth, and since then he has become more partial to his eldest son, and he has become even more disliked by this youngest son.
Because of the gossip about the youngest son, no one is willing to marry him anymore, Qi Sheng is also a little bit resigned, and the three of them live their lives in bumps.
But because of Qi Sheng's eccentricity, Qi Xiangnan almost does all the housework at home by himself. Although the child was young at that time, he became sensitive and inferior because of those rumors. For Qi Sheng's arrangement department to be obedient and obedient, he is not annoyed that his elder brother behaves like him.
Fortunately, Qi Sheng also knew that the child was his own son, so he didn't make him lack food or clothing except he was partial to him, and he was willing to go to school, and Qi Sheng didn't deliberately keep him at home.
Qi Xiangdong dropped out of school in his second year of high school and returned home. He learned some cooking skills from Qi Sheng, and occasionally went out to work for others, but it didn't last long. Compared with his hard-working younger brother, he was much more lazy.
Qi Xiangdong was living a carefree life, but one day he suddenly heard that his younger brother was admitted to university and was a golden phoenix flying out of a chicken coop.
Qi Xiangdong, who was walking on the road, was a little annoyed by the mutterings of the villagers, what is the golden phoenix flying out of the chicken coop! His younger brother is Golden Phoenix, so what is he? Chicken in a chicken coop
Qi Xiangdong walked home unhappily, only to hear his obedient younger brother ask him directly, "Where's Dad?"
Qi Xiangnan, who had just received the admission notice, was overjoyed and wanted to tell his dad the news as soon as possible. He thought that his dad was always competitive, but now that he was trying to win face for him, would his dad think it would be okay? I like him a little bit.
The relationship between the two brothers was not good, and Qi Xiangdong often bullied him. Qi Xiangnan hadn't called him brother for a long time, so this time it was out of habit, and he ignored the address.
Both of them didn't care about it before, but this time Qi Xiangdong was upset when he thought of his younger brother being called the golden phoenix, and he became cautious for a moment, thinking that his younger brother didn't take him seriously, so he lifted his foot and kicked Qi Xiangnan. foot.
Qi Xiangnan, who was holding the admission notice in his hand, was kicked abruptly and was a little angry. Although he didn't fight back, he couldn't help asking: "It's in broad daylight, why are you crazy!"
It's a pity that the "crazy" Qi Xiangdong not only didn't see his brother admitting his mistake, but also found that the little brat dared to contradict him today!
Looking at the admission notice in Qi Xiangnan's hand, Qi Xiangdong said disdainfully: "Why, you think you can go to college, so you dare not take me seriously?"
After speaking, he snatched the thin piece of paper from Qi Xiangnan's hand and tore it in half without saying a word.
Qi Xiangnan didn't expect Qi Xiangdong to go too far, carefully picked up the notice that was thrown on the ground and put it away, and punched Qi Xiangdong while he was not paying attention.
The two brothers wrestled into a ball in a blink of an eye. Although Qi Xiangdong looked strong, he didn't get much favor from Qi Xiangnan. Both of them were more than 1.8 meters tall. Although Qi Xiangnan looked thin, his body strength was not small .
This time Qi Xiangnan became ruthless again, Qi Xiangdong's face was bruised and purple.
When Qi Sheng came back, the two hadn't finished fighting, but seeing the eldest son who was pinned to the ground, Qi Sheng began to favor Qi Xiangdong subjectively.
Qi Xiangdong is also a good hand at suing, so after some extra effort, no matter how Ren Qi Xiangnan explained it, Qi Sheng felt that the youngest son had become complacent and started to go crazy.
Looking at the youngest son who didn't know how to "repent", Qi Sheng was so angry that he said directly: "I don't think there is any need to study this course, he dares to be lawless before his wings grow hard!"
No matter how many grievances Qi Xiangnan has suffered in these years, he has not shown it. Now that his father is indiscriminate, obviously he has taken out the torn notice, but his father still faces Qi Xiangdong.
Somewhat unbearable, he didn't apologize obediently as usual, put the notice in his arms, and ran out sullenly, thinking about the grievances and injustices he had suffered over the years, and was hit by a passing truck when he didn't pay attention one is right.
When Qi Xiangnan woke up again, his lower body was unconscious...
From heaven to hell, that's all. Qi Xiangnan, who was paralyzed on the bed, became a useless person. At first, Qi Sheng regretted it a little, but he gradually lost his patience to take care of a paralyzed person every day. Instead, he began to blame the child for being willful and ignorant. .
It just so happened that the driver paid their family a lot of money, Qi Sheng didn't want to stay at home to watch over a half-dead man, so he took the money and his early savings to go out to do some business, leaving his eldest son at home to look after his younger son.
Qi Sheng walks freely, completely disregarding whether the relationship between the two sons is harmonious, nor thinking about the younger son who is paralyzed in bed, what will happen to his future life if there is no caring person to take care of him.
About half a year after Qi Sheng left home, Qi Sheng received the news of his eldest son, but it was the news of his younger son's death.
When Qi Sheng heard the news, he was silent for a long time, didn't say much, went home and buried his younger son in a low-key manner, and left the village with his elder son...
****
Qi Sheng recalled the plot he had received, looked at the smirking child in front of him, his only comfort was that the child would be protected by him in the future, and he would never be wronged again.
