My grandma often says that suffering will bring you pain and happiness.
My grandma often says, people should remember love. You can buy anything in the world, but love is the only thing that cannot be bought. If you owe others a favor, you have to repay them. Don’t owe others your favor and don’t repay it to others. The same is true for marriage, love is very important. Only when the couple is together, one remembers the other's love, will it last forever and be happy.
Me, I don’t know why, since my mother left me, I have made up my mind not to get married, and never get married in this life. Because my dad and my mom's marriage is like a nightmare, forever engraved in my mind.
My grandma often says that my mother is not as good as outsiders. I think this sentence is correct.
My grandmother also said that my son does not think that his mother is ugly. I think it may not be right, it is possible that my mother is ugly.
Why? I said, my mother is ugly, and she is ugly and she is so ugly that she is so ugly that she is so ugly that she is so ugly that she is in the universe. It’s not that she looks ugly, but she’s ugly inside.
When I was five years old, my mother ran away. I remember very clearly that my mother usually dresses up beautifully and often quarrels with my dad. She dislikes my dad for not making money, calls her dad stupid, and sometimes even blames my grandparents for not having enough food for a few days.
After the Spring Festival that year, my mother and my dad quarreled and wanted to go to work.
My dad said, "I'm going to work, you're taking care of your children at home, after all, she's still young."
My mom disagreed. After the Chinese New Year, she left with a big suitcase. I held her leg and begged her: "Mom, don't leave me!"
She slapped me angrily and scolded, "I don't work, what can I use to support you?"
My face hurts so hard, as if someone is drawing on the face with a knife.
I heard from my dad that I had five finger marks on my face at that time, and then my face was swollen for several days, and it hurts when I eat.
My mother went out for half a year and didn't bring a penny to her family, nor did she call to say hello.
The people in the village said that my mother might not come back, maybe she would have had sex with the boss, so she didn't want me anymore.
I heard this and cried for several days, thinking to myself that she would not leave me, and that one day she would come back. Sometimes, I dream of my mom coming back and buying me a lot of snacks.
Just as I was thinking about it day and night, she came back. Unfortunately, she is no longer the same as in my dream, she has changed and become vicious.
She didn't come back alone, and there was a tiger-headed man behind her.
That man looks like a fat pig with a big belly, like a ball. His face was chubby and he was wearing sunglasses.
My mother is still dressed up in a colorful manner, her hair is as permed as a twist, her mouth is bright red, she is so sarcastic, and she speaks in a coquettish manner. When she enters the house, she rapes my grandmother and grandfather and says, "Two old people are immortal! I want to divorce your baby! You are comfortable!"
My father scolds her, "If you have parents, scold my parents, it is equivalent to scolding your own parents."
My mother said angrily, "Stop talking! I'm divorced you."
My father said, "Okay! I'll divorce you. This family can't hold on to you."
So, my father took the household registration book and marriage certificate and went to the county civil affairs bureau to divorce my mother.
When my mother left, I saw her holding the man's hand and laughed happily.
When I was eight years old, Aunt Li from the village introduced a woman to my dad.
It was raining that day, and the woman was carrying a boy, about the same age as me, so cute.
As soon as I entered the door, the boy took an apple from the bag carried by the woman for me to eat and said, "My mother bought it, you can eat it!"
The boy asked me, "What's your name? Where to go to school?"
I said, "My name is Li Na. I went to school in Pingtou Primary School. Where are you?"
He said, "My name is Zhang Yang. I went to school in Huaping Primary School."
I don't know where Huaping Primary School is, but I know that this little boy is very cute.
I was eating apples while listening to Aunt Li and my dad talking.
talked for a long time, but I didn't understand what I said, but in the end I heard my grandma say something and I understood what they said.
My grandmother said, "We have no requirements, as long as she treats me Nana. After all, her mother left early."
I knew that Aunt Li introduced my father to her, and I was very distracted. I hope my father found a stepmother for me, but I was afraid that my stepmother would beat and scold me, so I wish my father would never marry me. Our family was happy.
After dinner, Zhang Yang, his mother and Aunt Li left. My dad sat under the eaves and smoked a few cigarettes in a row without saying a word, then hugged me and said, "Nana, do you like that brother just now?"
I nodded.
He said again, "Do you like his mother?"
I thought for a long time, but I don't know how to answer.
My dad didn't see me answer and was silent.
At this time, my grandmother said, " Xiaohua , that woman is good, but unfortunately the man was bitten to death by a snake, otherwise he would not marry you. Look, a person is beautiful, speaks politely and more importantly, she has a good reading. I heard that she graduated from junior high school."
A week later, Zhang Yang and his mother came.
It was winter, and our family gathered around fire pit to eat hot pot, which was so delicious.
I saw my father keep picking up food for that woman, and then picked up food for me and Zhang Yang.
After eating, my dad hugged me and called me to the woman's mother. I was shy and didn't shout.
However, Zhang Yang called my father sweetly, and he heard it more and more.
The next night, I was about to go to bed, and my stepmother said to me, "Nana, be good, come here quickly, mom knitted a sweater for you. Look, your sweater is torn and leaking, it must be cold!"
I put on the sweater and felt very warm.
Later, I heard my grandmother say that my stepmother is Yunfen, and this name is very strange. If you add Yun's name to Fen, you always feel strange.
Sometimes my grandmother called my stepmother for dinner, bent down at the gate, then straightened her hands to form a trumpet shape, shouting, "Yunfen, Yunfen, I've had a meal! I can't finish my work, let's talk about it after dinner."
There is a field dam in front of my house, which is very lively in spring, summer, autumn and winter. There are many people working, and they talk and chatter. My grandmother has to shout at the top of her voice, otherwise my stepmother will not hear it.
My stepmother is an expert in farm work and is also an expert in growing crops. She has a bumper harvest every year. Our family never lacks food, and often helps families with poor family conditions in the village.
Not only are you experts in growing crops, but you are also experts in working, and you are also experts in raising pigs and feeding cattle. Our family raises five or six fat pigs and two cows a year.
In a few years, our family became rich.
When I was in the first grade of junior high school, my brother Zhang Yang was in the second grade of junior high school. My grandmother suffered a serious illness and spent a lot of money, but in the end she was not cured by my grandmother.
The second year of my grandmother's death, my brother was admitted to a normal school and got the admission notice that night, my grandfather also left.
When I was in the third year of junior high school, I said to Brother Zhang Yang, "Brother, I want to take the normal school too!"
My brother scolded me, "There is no future! My brother took the normal school because he was afraid of dragging you down to high school. I graduated early to support you to go to college."
So, I listened to my brother and I was admitted to the city's key high school.
That winter, my dad went up the mountain to burn charcoal and sold it. He was bitten by a bear and ate one leg, leaving only one leg, and almost lost his life. Several men were carried to the hospital for emergency treatment. After half a year of treatment, my father could barely get out of the ground.
I heard about it, so I ran to the hospital and cried all night. I know, I may not be able to go to school anymore.
My brother comforted me: "Why are you crying? Since it has become a fact, face it bravely!"
I said: "Brother, Dad is like this, I will not study anymore, go to work!"
My brother was angry and scolded: "Your head is so simple! Working may be hard for a lifetime, and studying may be hard for three years. You are in the first year of high school, and you will take the college entrance examination in two years. After you get into college, I will graduate and I will give you my salary. What are you worried about?"
My stepmother knew that I didn't want to study, for fear of dragging down my family, so he comforted me and said: "Nana, you have such good grades, it would be a pity not to study. What's more, being a farmer is so hard! Facing the loess and backs, you are busy all year round, just to eat for a bite of food."
I said in tears: "Mom, I'm afraid you will be tired! Look at dad like this, he may not be able to work in the future. You are alone for this family, I am afraid that you will not be able to withstand the torture. ”
My mother smiled and said, “What are you saying? That little bit of work in the field is so easy. Don't worry, mom is still young and in good health. You should study hard! Your brother graduated in two years, and from now on, I will feel relaxed. "
I didn't let them down and finally got admitted to university.
My brother graduated from Normal School and was assigned to teach in a village primary school. That year my stepmother fell ill.
I heard my father call and say that one night, my stepmother coughed severely and finally vomited a bunch of blood.
My brother carried her to the hospital for treatment for two weeks before he slowly
Graduated from university, I was assigned to work in Shanghai.
In winter, I came back and I bought a lot of clothes and nutritional supplements for my brother, my stepmother, and my dad.
Just as the family was having a happy New Year, my real mother appeared. She came alone, but the man did not come.
She stood at the gate of my house and shouted, "Nana, I'm back to see you!" "
My stepmother ran out to see first, but didn't know my real mother, and asked, "Who are you? "
My mother scolded: "I'm blind! I am the woman Xiaohua used to be! "
My dad heard this and came out with a crutch. He saw that it was my biological mother and said, "What's the matter?" "
My mother said, "Is Nana at home? "
I ran out of the kitchen, looked at her in shock, and after a while, I said, "What's the matter? "
My mother said excitedly: "Oh, my girl has grown up! "
She ran into the yard like a child, then ran to me, hugged me and said oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh "
She smiled and said, "I am your real mother!" It's okay, I can't see you anymore? ”
I said sarcastically: “My real mother is dead! He died more than ten years ago! "
Her smile suddenly stiffened, and she said halfway through: "Nana, you don't recognize your mother anymore! ”
I said, “My mother died long ago! She left with a man more than ten years ago and was already dead outside! "
She said to my dad, "Xiaohua, don't care about Nana?" Am I her real mother? ”
My dad said, “She has no mom! Her mother is Yunfen! We don't know who you are! "
In an instant, she rolled on the ground like crazy, crying and shouting.
Several women in the village came to persuade her, some scolded her, some comforted her, and even some drove her away.
until afternoon, she left alone.
During the Spring Festival, it was heavy snow, and I begged my brother to take me to the mountain to get a hare.
My brother was very happy and agreed readily. He was afraid of me I fell and carried me in a dangerous place.
That day, we caught two hares, and it was already late when we came back.
After dinner, the matchmaker Aunt Li came to match his brother and said that there was a girl who liked him after elementary school in the town center.
My brother was a straightforward person and refused, saying that the girl was a classmate with him and he didn't like it.
Aunt Li seemed to be determined to ask my brother to marry that girl, and said, "Baby, Auntie is also entrusted by others! In that family, many children want to marry her, but they don’t agree! ”
My stepmother asked: “What family? "
Aunt Li said: "Her mother is the director of the Education Office, and her father is the deputy director of the Education Bureau! If you don't agree, unless you don't want to work. "
These words scared the stepmother and the whole family fell silent.
I actually like my brother very much. Although he is my brother, he has no blood relationship with me.
So, I said to Aunt Li, "Auntie, my brother has a girlfriend! Moreover, that girlfriend works in Shanghai. ”
When my stepmother heard this, she looked at my dad without saying anything.
Aunt Li smiled and said, "Oh, I've said it earlier! But, I asked you, work in Shanghai? Isn't it nonsense? Is Zhang Yang worthy?"
I said, "Why can't I be worthy? He deserves it!"
Aunt Li sneered and said, "Just talk nonsense! Who believes it?"
I said, "That girl is me! I am my brother's girlfriend, I want to marry him!"
Aunt Li was shocked when she heard this, and then smiled and said, "I said it earlier! It made me talk for a long time and my saliva was dry. -Okay, I'll reply to others. He has a girlfriend. It's his sister who is unkind by his father and mother."
After Aunt Li left, my father smiled quackly, but my stepmother didn't laugh, and said, "Who believes this? If If you are not married, the girl will find out and you will come to propose marriage! "
I said seriously: "Mom, I want to marry my brother. I don't allow him to marry another girl!"
My brother glared at me and said, "What nonsense?"
I said, "I am serious! I want to marry you! If you don't marry me, I won't get married!"
My stepmother glanced at my father and said, "Look, your girl, has such a stubborn temper!"
My father smiled and said, "What are you stubborn? Yangyang is not married, she is not married, and the two have such a good relationship, and they are not close relatives, why not?"
In the autumn of the next year, I introduced my brother to a job in Shanghai and taught in a training institution, and his salary was good.
On New Year's Day, I got married to him, and my stepmother and my dad stayed in Shanghai from then on and lived with us.
One day, I received a call from my mother and scolded me for being in a state of mind. A college student actually married a normal school student!
I replied to my mother: "I do! You don't care!"
Half a year later, my mother came to Shanghai to find me, and we met in a cafe. She dressed up beautifully and said with a smile: "Nana, I'm divorced that man. I'm going to live with you."
I said coldly: "Forget it! You're not worthy of being my mother. I don't have a mother like you." After that, I got up and left, and since then I put her phone on the blacklist.
