Many people think that the war is far away from us, mainly because the comfortable days have been too long, which is actually an illusion.
We do not live in a peaceful era, but in a peaceful country, just on the other side of the border, where ordinary people live like year, and food and clothing are not a problem, but their lives are not guaranteed.
From time to time, they will move their family because they avoid the war. It is a blessing to have a wooden house with air leakage everywhere.
The years of war has brought about a situation where there are more women and fewer men. Boys don’t have to worry about marrying, but girls are worried about marrying, which is exactly the opposite of our current situation.
So, many girls try every means to go to Yunnan to find opportunities. Marrying to China is their greatest wish.
Rural girl is not yet settled at the age of 23
Xiao Min just celebrated her 23rd birthday. Although she has not been to school for a few years, she speaks Chinese very well. This is the foundation laid by her parents since she was a child.
Father often brings specialties to the China-Myanmar border to do some small business, and yearns for a wealthy and peaceful life here. He has no chance to leave his current life and can only rely on his children.
originally had to arrange for Xiao Min to work in a small restaurant in Ruili , but the epidemic has made a comeback, and it is impossible to enter the country in the short term.
Looking at this lively and lovely daughter, the parents felt very uncomfortable, and they had no requirements for the man's conditions.
1 million bride gifts can be taken away
"We don't want much bride gifts, and Xiao Min can be taken away 1 million. This is just a form!" When talking about her daughter's future marriage, the father, who looked vicissitudes, said helplessly.
1 million! At first glance, it sounds like an astronomical figure. Does this small country also have sky-high bride prices? No! 1 million Myanmar Kyat is equivalent to RMB 3370 , and it is more than that little money to place two tables of wine.
In fact, they can do not have a bride price. This is just to make the man pay attention to Xiao Min. If he makes money from nothing, he will let his daughter take it away. In the eyes of her in-laws, she will be insignificant.
is just a little darker in the skin
To be fair, this girl is relatively excellent in other aspects except for her low level of education.
grew up in an environment where there is no fixed place to live. He has a strong sense of crisis. Unlike girls nowadays, they spend as much as they have, and even borrow money to spend in advance. Their ability to manage their house is absolutely excellent.
Judging from her skillful wood-cutting movements, she usually does housework and physical work, which is rare in today's society. She is hard-working and knows how to save money. Such a wife is hard to find when she is holding a lantern.
If you really want to talk about the disadvantage, it is that your skin is a little darker and you go to the fields to do farm work every day. No matter how good your skin is, it cannot withstand it.
But isn't this natural beauty better than those girls who paint white faces?
Compare Xiao Min's situation. Some people just don't know how to be blessed. Not being content is the driving force for moving forward, but knowing contentment is the secret to getting happiness. A peaceful life with a simple meal is just a luxury for her!
