The following days were the best time in her rough life, the only time worth nostalgic in her devastated youth, this time almost occupied all her memory, it was like a flash in the pan, fleeting The short-lived beauty made her spend her whole life reminiscing about it.
At that time, they were together every day, they worked, ate, chatted and played together, she could hear his breathing clearly, enjoy his charming smile, and listen to his magnetic male voice indulgently, he was her The source of happiness.
They come and go in pairs and follow each other, they are a beautiful scenery in that gloomy and dilapidated town, handsome men and beautiful women, a match made in heaven, every time they pass by, there are always some boring people pointing behind them Poke poke, they are the focus of those people's discussions.
These people like to catch wind and shadow, like to destroy beauty, like to make trouble out of nothing, they are keen to pry into other people's privacy, they enjoy the happiness brought by watching other people's pain, they turn ordinary and simple things into twists and turns, beyond recognition, they rely on subjective pinching They spread rumors, slander, distort the facts, and exaggerate the evil and suppress the good, so as to comfort their empty, pale, and distorted souls, and they get destructive pleasure by this.
Those gossiping women said that she had already lived with him, and even had a miscarriage. They were not optimistic about their relationship, and they hoped that their relationship would die. The dirty water was poured all over her body. These cruel kind, like red snakes, raised their heads from time to time to bite their kind. They were envious, jealous, and hated, and they had a natural resistance to accepting beauty.
She turns a deaf ear to all these comments that are not good for her, she doesn't care what they say, all she needs is his love, as long as she has him in her world, it is he who makes her gloomy life bright and beautiful, it is him Get her out of the trough of depression.
That winter was over, and during the Spring Festival holiday, she witnessed her mother's worsening illness while thinking about him endlessly. Poverty made them helpless. Is there anything else in the world that is more painful than watching a loved one leave helplessly
Not to mention the high medical expenses, but to take a lot of medicines that are of no avail, and they are gradually destroying the mother's weak body. The family is already heavily in debt, and no one is willing to lend them money anymore, and they are completely helpless.
Sometimes my mother dropped her chopsticks when she was eating, she often broke the cup when she was doing housework, and sometimes she collapsed and no one knew about it. This made this unfortunate family feel gloomy and sad during the festive festival.
Despite this, the mother is still strong and does her best to do some housework within her capacity. She is afraid that the children will worry, and she is most afraid of affecting the younger brother's studies. The younger brother is the darling of the parents and places all their hopes on him. His growth is of great importance to the family. important.
This dilapidated small village is poor, backward, and closed. It is a famous village for bachelors. These poor children have no way out, only by studying and there is a glimmer of hope, and this glimmer of hope is like a mirage, so hopeless, but hopeless. Most people still place their hopes on studying. My mother thinks that if my younger brother's studies are affected, the consequence is likely to be joining the ranks of bachelors here.
But the mother was unable to support him, and the mother always felt that she was a drag on the family. She refused treatment, refused to take medicine, and was depressed. She hoped that she would die soon. They were all worried about their mother, worried that her mother would commit suicide, and their father quietly told them to take care of their mother.
She looked at her mother in pain and despair, and her heart felt as if it was torn apart, but she did not dare to show it in front of her mother, who also pinned her hope of taking care of her younger siblings. Father has worked too hard, and his mother's illness and heavy labor have made him prematurely step into the ranks of elderly people. Father often uses alcohol to relieve his sorrow and fatigue, and alcohol makes him more dull and aging.
She's the head of the family and she has to pick up the load
In those days of pain and suffering, in those days of exhaustion, she relied on her love for him to support her. It was love that made her see hope in the future and life is beautiful, so she must stand up and walk. past.
She secretly vowed that no matter how difficult it is, she must raise her siblings to become adults and fulfill her mother's wish.
The short vacation passed, and she hurried back to the unit with deep sorrow and a bit of joy to see him again.
The unit assigned two girls to work in the typing room, responsible for typing and printing. The two of them shared part of her chores in the town government, but these two girls were completely different from her. It's a world of difference. In the words of the people here, she is very honest. To put it bluntly, she is stubborn and will not behave in front of the leaders, but these two girls are very in line with the "trend of the development of the times", "in keeping with the times" Jujin"; soon became Liu Xu's successor, the two of them took the initiative to clean up the two leaders, got up early every day and waited in the typing room, and occasionally got a little awkward because they competed to clean up for the big leader.
The two girls were quickly appreciated by the leaders, and they were often named and praised during regular meetings. They soon became the object of praise from everyone. In contrast, she seemed incompetent in the eyes of everyone, even though she was a university graduate. But there is no "practical ability".
She doesn't care about these, she only cares about his opinion, she has her own values, has her own outlook on life, she looks down on these people who follow the trend, in this filthy torrent, she insists on keeping herself clean and not kitsch.
Oh, I haven't mentioned Huang Juan for a long time. Since the failed expression of love, this eldest lady went home in a fit of anger and never showed up at the unit before the Spring Festival. She dressed up more fashionable and appeared in the unit, but in Xue Bing's eyes, her dress looked colorful from a distance, but it was hideous and terrifying up close.
Huang Juan hated her so much, they lived in the same room, she had to bear the burden and get along with Huang Juan carefully.
Huang Juan often made fun of her faded and shabby denim jacket in front of Jiang Cheng. In Huang Juan's view, this denim jacket was her opponent's Achilles heel. She seized this point and attacked with all her strength. The advantages of her family are condescending and domineering in front of Xue Bing. It's a pity that the harder she tried, the farther she was from her goal, but she foolishly thought that every blow she hit hit the nail on the head.
This matter was soon confirmed. She clearly remembered that it was a rose-colored evening in summer, and the sunset glow dyed the sky into a crimson and ambiguous warm color. After Jiang Cheng returned home, he suddenly smiled mysteriously. Xixi brought her a beautifully packaged bag, and she asked in surprise, "What is this?"
In fact, she already had a premonition from his expression that this might be a gift from him, and her heart was pounding with excitement.
He smiled and said, "Open it and have a look."
This is the first time she has accepted a gift from a man, and it is a gift from her beloved man. She can't wait to open it. It is a thin pink silk dress. The style of the dress is simple and elegant, which is her favorite style. ,favourite colour.
He leaned into her ear and said softly, "Put it on for me."
