At three o'clock in the middle of the night, I finally waited until the barbecue restaurant closed.
Everyone else went back to the rental house. As usual, I slept with a table in the store and slept well.
Before I lay down, I heard the rolling shutter door being forced to push up. With a slamming noise, my instinctive reaction was that I had entered the thief and picked up a pair of triangle pliers. My heart was beating, but soon, in Dai In the light and shadow of the dim street lights, I looked at a pair of familiar legs. It was Jin Haiping. Even if his skeleton legs turned into ashes, I would never admit my mistake.
The rolling shutter door was pushed up halfway, and he bent down to try to climb in. I felt fear in the panic and thought, he had been found by him for several months.
But this place is very secretive. If it weren't for an acquaintance, he would never find it easily. Who betrayed me? Without too much thought, I pulled up my coat, didn't care much, and jumped out of the back window.
The moment I jumped into the window, I looked back and saw that he had crawled in with great difficulty. My feet slipped and I fell to bite the mud.
He stood up and chased and shouted, "Bai Yuju, run again, I will break your legs."
The alley is too dark, I got up and ran forward and ran for life. Not long after running, I heard the yelling from behind roaring in a hurry. The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and I could almost hear the rapid gasp, and I didn't dare to run again.
In the night, I saw a half-person-high fence at the corner of the left hand of the alley, which was dark inside. I crawled and rolled in with force, but before I could stand firm, two wolf dogs barked like crazy and rushed forward. I rushed over, and my legs were sore and weak, but I didn't dare to cry.
Seeing the ferocious wolf dog breaking away from the rope and pounced towards me, I shivered and shivered backwards. At some point, Jin Haiping was already standing behind me. He pulled me over and cursed, "Bai Yuju, I still run, can I run? "In that moment, I don't know where I got the courage? Even if he was bitten to death by a wolf dog, he would not be caught by him. He sacrificed his life to run forward. The barking of the wolf dog resounded throughout the summer night, and the hot sweat soaked in his heart and back like water. He was in panic. The dazzling light made me stagger, and a black shadow blocked the way.
I raised my head and saw a tall man in front of me. There was a willow leaf scar on my right face, which made me feel steep and I lost my strength under my feet and could no longer move.
The man looked half tired, and he walked over me and stopped the barking, and asked sternly: "Who is the one who deserves life? You dare to steal in my backyard."
"Brother, I misunderstood, we are not thieves, she is my wife, and my brain is a little ill."
"Brother, I misunderstood. We are not thieves, she is my wife, and I have a little brain problem. , he ran around in the middle of the night, and accidentally disturbed his elder brother. "Jin Haiping nodded and said, while pointing at his head.
The man looked down at me, then looked at Jin Haiping, and cursed, "It's midnight, the monsters got into my backyard, and it was messy after sleeping. Why don't you get out of here!"
is bored by the man. While I was yawning, I was dragged away from the main door by Jin Haiping. Even though I tried hard to argue, the man still shook his head and urged us to leave quickly with annoyed look on his face. He also said, "My wife is not good at using her mind. Take it tight."
At that moment, I felt that he was as fierce as the wolf dog in his backyard.
When Jin Haiping dragged me out of the city village, it was already bright. Most of my hair was torn off while struggling, my pants were also broken, and blood stains on my knees were mixed with dry mud, which made my heart hurt.
The old van was parked in the suburbs of the city and I was thrown in.
2
galloped along the provincial highway, got off the provincial highway and passed through Foxin Mountain. The car swayed and bumped on the pale earthy highway. I was once again taken back to Xiaojinzhuang by Jin Haiping.
Before the car could stop, the mother-in-law who was pounding rice in the yard pointed to the rice in the stone mortar and cursed: "I am really ignorant. Whose wife is not angry, it is all the valley in this rice jar. It will be destroyed. The shell can be soft and harmonious. My Jin family’s wife wants to break the shell that makes a monster.”
I was pulled out of the car, so I simply said loudly, “What era is it? I’m still using things from a hundred years ago. Women today are no longer the same as before, and they are not allowed to beat and scold you. "
" Oh, I've been getting angry for a few months when I went to the provincial capital and my skin was itchy."
Jin Haiping looked at the model and dog Like, his ears are the softest. As soon as his mother urged the fire, his fists and feet followed, and threatened that I would break my legs if I ran again.
In his father's words, " Ping'er , beat him to death, and the people of our Jin family were from the side. The Bai family originally asked for a 70,000 yuan bride price, and they sold their daughter to my Jin family."
This time, Under the instigation of his parents, Jin Haiping made a ruthless move. My ribs were almost broken, and the bruises on my body were like a torn ink painting, spreading in messy and desperately in the last little time of summer.
For the 70,000 yuan bride price, my parents asked me to marry my flawed husband, and advised me to live a peaceful life
I lay on the kang for three days, and no one had visited me except my sister.
My sister is young and cried for a long time and recounted her parents' merry words: "Sister, parents said, tell you not to run away again, live a peaceful life, what else can you find if you leave the Jin family? After all, your face is Buzhou Zheng, if it weren't for the fact that the son of the Jin family had some flaws, who would be willing to give so many brides to marry you, they would say..." Before my sister
had finished her words, I shouted, "It's enough."
My sister was so scared that she shivered and didn't dare to speak anymore. I hugged her tightly. She was fourteen years old and thin. I remembered that year, I was as old as her.
It was also like this summer. When the summer vacation was about to end, a group of people came to the family and drove away the sheep and pigs in the circle. Even the sewing machine that my mother was dowry when she got married was not spared.
My sister and I sorted out some scattered information from my mother's heart-wrenching cry. My younger brother, who was just born, was born for a long time, and the family was fined.
After the group of people left, my father's plan hit me.
He stopped his temper and said softly: "Yuju, you see, all the valuable things in the family have been charged and fined. You are the boss of the family, and you have to take on the responsibility of the boss. Don't read the book anymore, you have to collect it. Qiu also went to work in the city to help live at home. "
"I don't, I want to study." I shook my head vigorously.
"What do you think? A muddy mind is not the material for studying. It costs nothing but food. I will die as soon as possible." Seeing that I was disobedient, he roared and smoked.
"I don't, I just want to study."
"I miss you, big-headed ghost, get out."
I stood under the eaves, the night wind blew slowly, I squatted down and sobbed, and after a long time, no one paid attention to me. , stubborn and forced to drive away, the more you cry, the more sad you feel.
I don’t know when, the night covered the moonlight, and I couldn’t breathe. I was still curled up in the corridor and cried. The raindrops hit the tree, and the wind whipped the shadows from the initial rustling to the rustling.
Mother pushed open the door and said, "Yuju, don't cry anymore. It's raining heavily. Go back to the house. Your dad has no choice."
"Why do you want to have a younger brother?" I asked crying.
As soon as the voice ended, I heard the sound of bowls falling in the room. Then I heard my father swearing: "Tell her to cry, it's better to cry to death. It's uneasy. If you ask her to enter the room, I will interrupt anyone who asks her to enter the room. She has the ability to not enter the house overnight."
Mother wiped her tears and tried to help me up, but I pushed my mother's arm hard with my little elbow, and slapped her head in her thin arms and continued to sob. Mother He said softly: "Who looks like you? I don't know how to show off."
The rain stopped at some point. When I woke up, the weather was already sweet. Although it was summer, I was still awakened by the cold wind. My mother pushed open the door and cursed and pulled me into the house.
My sister shouted loudly: "Sister , What's wrong with your face? "
My mother pulled me over and looked at me, beat my chest and stamped my feet and shouted: "Oh, I'm so angry. Look at you, you can't go back to the house. The rain in the dark sky is the most terrifying. What should I do now? It's going to cost money again! "
I ran to the mirror and saw that the person in the mirror was pale and swollen, his eyes and mouth were tilted in one direction. I cried so hard that I couldn't breathe.
My father, who was up early and busy, heard the movement He rushed into the room and looked at me with a crooked mouth and slanted eyes. He was startled at first, and then he cursed: "I deserve it if I do anything! "
The mother showed a hint of toughness at that moment. She said, "Don't scold me, why don't you borrow a car to take her to see you, don't delay it. "
But her toughness was only a moment. When she was pushed back by her father's words "no money", her mother returned to her former weakness. She just hugged me in her arms and hugged me, and then went I breastfeed and changed my brother's diapers and carried out housework all day.
, and I went from being unwilling to abandon school to being flirted with my father. Although I tried all my strength, my father did not give it to me in the end. Look at my face.
After the last frost in autumn fell, the crops had been harvested, and my father sent me on the car to the provincial capital.
That year, I was exactly fourteen years old.
3
's injury has not yet recovered. It was the autumn harvest.
Just like when I was fourteen years old, I gathered my energy to work, fought against fate and fought against fate.
Under the autumn wind, Buckwheat , potatoes, and oats were all in the hot sweat Entered the warehouse.
Jin Haiping carries his mother and occasionally feels sorry for me. He burns hot water at night to help me wash my feet and massage my back. The heat is warm. I have also tried to convince myself to let go of my resentment and live like an ordinary couple. After all, the pain of wandering outside has filled my heart.
, as soon as the sun rises, my mother-in-law has just one look, and Jin Haiping becomes a person. She speaks ill-heartedly to me. If I resist a little, I will fight with my feet. Add.
The days of disheartenedness passed through frost . Seeing the cold winter approaching, I deliberately escaped one day as tight as a day.
The winter solstice is the year.
Village Every household in the country began to kill pigs and sheep. The pig-killing vegetables are steaming, drinking and joking loudly, as if the busyness and fatigue of the whole year are released happily at this time.
Jin Haiping comes back almost every night, drinking and drinking all over the yard .
The snow that night was fine and compact, and it came when the wind stopped at dusk. When the moon was in the middle of the moon, it was already half a foot thick. Jin Haiping fell into a white-haired bear all the way back. I just opened the door a little slower, and he raised his hand A slap made me dizzy, and the red blood stains on the corners of my mouth slid down my throat, fishy, salty and wet.
I swallowed it hard, turned around and stared at him. He shook his head and raised his hand. I copied it. He swung the prepared axe and his body immediately fell softly.
I knocked Jin Haiping out of the drunkenness and tied up all over the place, and walked into the silent snowy night alone.
Half a foot thick snow covers your ankles, and every step you take requires a lot of force. If you stop a little or fall and can't get up, you will freeze to death in the ice and snow.
But I left with the determination to die, I am not afraid of death.
When it was dawn, I finally walked on the road. The world was still white, and there was no trace of living creature except a few hares on the road.
I know in my heart that the end of the year is approaching, and there is always a car to get New Year’s goods to pass by. As long as I persist, I will definitely walk out of Foxin Mountain.
Fortunately, God is merciful, bad luck will not follow me forever. As noon approached, I encountered a truck full of sheep. I told the driver that I was from a village near the highway and I was going to the city He agreed readily when doing business in the house. The truck passed Foxin Mountain and the old man from the Jin family flashed into my mind, saying, if you run away, your Bai family will pay for your life.
I used to be afraid, but later I learned that he was scaring me to be timid. Even if he killed someone and set fire to the Bai family to collect debts, the debt was not something I owe.
Whoever owesses will pay it back.
Thinking of this, it became much easier.
After entering the city, I dared not find a job in the former urban village. The acquaintances who worked with me before could no longer find a job. I was stunned for a day and couldn't find it.
It was getting dark even though I couldn't find a place to stay. I would definitely freeze to death on the streets.
However, the city is different from the countryside. As long as I am willing to work hard and endure hardship, I will never starve to death and freeze to death. In desperation, I walked into a slaughterhouse and started to clean my internal organs.
Whether it is the Bai family or the Jin family, they probably wouldn't have dreamed that a woman in her twenties would suck her in her blood nest of cattle and sheep and suck her.
But in order to survive and to make myself a Zhou Zheng person, I endured the uproar of dry retching and made my stomach smoothly, and I even worked very hard.
Days pass quickly, and the peach blossom rain falls softly all over the ground. It was already Qingming Festival when you flipped through the calendar.
4
Tang Enshan came to the slaughterhouse the day before Qingming Festival. He drove a second-hand off-road vehicle that was about to be scrapped. Before the person entered the yard, he shouted, "Old Qian, Old Qian."
Old Qian is Slaughterhouse boss.
"Oh, Brother Tang, here, come, hurry up and sit." As he said that, he handed over a cigarette, Tang Enshan touched his head and said, "If you don't sit, where are the things? Are you ready?"
" That's it , as the customs of previous years, everything is ready. Brother, please take a look first. "As he said, "Xiao Bai, bring the box in the backyard."
I cleaned my greasy hands and rushed to do it quickly After moving the box over, I was so scared that my seven orifices were exposed. The person in front of me had a willow leaf scar on the right face. It was the man that night. I said "ah" and the box in my hand fell to the ground. Scattered all over the ground, there were a sheep's head and several bags of washed internal organs.
Tang Enshan hurriedly bent down and picked it up. The boss shouted at me, "What are you doing? Do you know if this thing is a taboo?"
I was so scared that I trembled all over and didn't understand what he yelled. Tang Enshan sorted out the box and came to me. After saying: "It's you, it's all right."
Then he asked the boss, "How do you hire disabled people here?"
The boss smiled and said: "Brother Tang, you are not disabled!"
Tang Enshan But Frowning and leaning in the boss's ear, whispering, "Send it, there's something wrong with your brain."
"Ah!" As the boss exclaimed, my blood surged and said loudly, "You're the one who has a brain, your whole family All my brains were sick." After saying that, he turned around and left crying.
But I heard Tang Enshan behind me say, "It's pitiful, be careful." After that, I drove away with his worn-out second-hand off-road vehicle .
And I, thanks to him, was sent by the owner of the slaughterhouse as a lunatic. Fortunately, I saved some money in my hand and found a cheap hotel to make do with it all night.
Next I started looking for jobs again. I didn’t dare to go to the nanny market and the labor market, for fear of meeting an acquaintance again, and I was discovered by Jin Haiping.
I have been searching for a long time. I have to be a decent job and have a good facial features. I don’t care about food. After working hard for several days, I finally found a wholesale seasoning market and worked as a warehouse porter.
It’s really a bad luck for people to drink cold water and get stuck in the gaps between their teeth. After less than half a month of drying, Tang Enshan hit me again.
"Old Tang! That is, you can go into my warehouse to get things." The boss teased sarcastically.
"Who is my old Tang? You must check the food yourself. Although the seasonings are small, you must not be careless." Tang Enshan's body just squeezed into the warehouse and collided with me. The moment we saw each other, we were stunned for a moment.
Before he could speak, I took the initiative to yell, "Do we have a grudge? Why are you still in dispersed? Wherever I go, you follow me? Do you know how difficult it is for me to find a job? Is it? You came to instigate the boss to send me away again, right?” I cried anxiously as I said.
I scolded Tang Enshan, pointed to the seasoning on the shelves like an innocent child, and whispered, "I'm here to get the seasoning."
I was so funny that I couldn't help laughing by his funny look, and even burst into tears and laughed. .
He packed up all kinds of seasonings, and we met. It was that day that I knew his name was Tang Enshan. A big and thick scarred man with a strong man with a very genius name, which I often used to make fun of him later.
Days are not too slow. I have been working in the wholesale city for a long time and have become familiar with some tricks. After work, I picked up some cheap leaks and went to the night market to set up a stall. Although I can't make a lot of money, my scattered income is also Income is better than nothing.
, I met him again at the night market for the first time.
greasy oil pan, smoked fried chicken steak , surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside. I squatted for one night and didn't sell a piece of stuff. I was driven by curiosity and squeezed in Take a look.
A big man with bare hands turned around in the oil pan with a big hedge. After a while, the fried chicken chops soaked in oil were served on a large plate, making people look as they saliva fell and waited to line up. The people were crowded and rushing.
Looking at Tang Enshan working hard in sweat, I stepped out in disappointment, turned around and looked at my cold stall, and suddenly felt a little depressed.
The next day, Tang Enshan came to get seasonings again. I seized the opportunity to inquire with him, but he didn't shy away. He held a cigarette in his mouth and said, "Xiao Bai, why are you doing so hard? You are exhausted here during the day and you still have to practice at night. Stand, don’t work too hard for a woman.”
” That’s not that I want to earn more.” I feel a little embarrassed.
"If you want to earn more, then you will definitely not be able to sell those people. That is purely a mill. Do you think, the wholesale city is so big, you missed the sale here, how many of them are bought, you just push a cart to sell some drinks. , better than selling those people." ”
Tang Enshan's words prompted me, but I didn't sell drinks. I wandered around the night market for several nights, and then made up my mind to collect a second-hand small three-wheeler and bought a flat bottom Pot, I started selling hand-grabbing cakes .
Hand-grabbing cakes is the unique skill of Lao Bai’s family.
The noisy night market, I panned a large pile of hand-catch cakes with interest, but unexpectedly I didn't sell a single one. When I closed the stall, I looked at the cakes I had worked hard for the night and couldn't help but cry loudly. , You know, I have paid in the hard money I saved for several months to set up this stall.
"The pancakes are well baked, just hungry, come five of them." In a familiar voice, I raised my head and it was Tang Enshan.
I stood up embarrassedly and said, "If you are hungry, eat it, you can't sell it anyway."
He grabbed a cake and ate it with great flavor, and while eating it, he exclaimed: "This cake is really good, it's really good." , It would be great if it was hot."
I ignored him and started closing the stall to go home. He came over and told me after eating half of it, "Xiaobai, you can't do this, let alone your skill in this pancake needs to be improved. Even this business model must be active. Otherwise, I will take you to a place today. Where to go for "
"? "
" Don't ask, follow me quickly."As he said that, he stepped onto the three wheels, and then I quickly followed, and under the white and greasy moonlight, he circled around and finally came to the slaughterhouse where I once rushed into the water.
I saw it was a slaughterhouse. New and old hatreds surged up together and shouted at him: "What do you mean? Take me here. ”
He smiled silly and said, "Don't worry, wait for Ang. "
After saying that, he raised his throat and shouted to the yard: "Old Qian, Lao Qian. "
for some reason? Old Qian is usually awesome. When he heard Tang Enshan coming, he was always attentive. He probably fell asleep and squinted his eyes and ran out and asked, "Brother Tang, what's going on? What's wrong? What can be done with "
"? Hurry up and call all the workers on that night shift over, I am here to pay for them benefits for you, and I will be able to take care of my fullness after a night snack. "
As he said that, he moved a stack of hand-grabbed cakes out of the car. Lao Qian squinted his eyes and took them happily. Tang Enshan patted Lao Qian's arm and said with confidence: "The money must be sent out quickly! "
In fact, later on, I learned that the hand-catch cake that day was paid by Tang Enshan.
But that night, all my hand-catch cakes were sold out under the favor of Tang Enshan. On the way back, Tang Enshan hummed Xiaoqu said proudly: "Oh, it's been so many years, and it's never been so bright tonight. "
Although I was a little embarrassed, I was still very grateful to him. It was a good start that day.
Since then, my hand-catch cakes have also sold surprisingly under the fried chicken chop stall in Tangenshan. Good job, when the business is particularly good, we occasionally go to the suburban slaughterhouse more than ten miles away in the middle of the night to send free midnight snacks.
Every time we come back, he will sing all the way! It's like a heartless person, and I, following him, feel extremely happy and I don't feel tired of pedaling.
Just when I thought I could gain a foothold in this city with my hard work When nightmare came again.
5
Jin Haiping found a stall in the night market. He kicked the tricycle overturned. The crowds rushing from both sides of the passage screamed and ran away. He pulled my hair and slapped me. .
Although I was not as afraid of him as before, I was still weak and squatted down with my head and didn't dare to fight back.
Just as I was kicked by him again and again, I suddenly heard a scream, I lifted it At first glance, Jin Haiping was kicked by Tang Enshan and struggled on the ground, looking like a clown.
"A bitch woman, dare to hook up with a wild man. "Jin Haiping tried to get up and cursed hard, but before he got up, he was kicked over by Tang Enshan again.
I was shocked by the scene in front of me. I never thought that there would be humans in this place without relatives. What surprised me even more was that Jin Haiping was so angry that he didn't dare to come forward and hit me after being kicked.
It turned out that he was a standard coward.
Finally, he got up with people's fingers and fingers, and he got up. , staggered all the way, and cursed unwillingly after walking away: "Bai Yuju, please wait for me." ”
That night, Tang Enshan took me back. On the way, he turned to the pharmacy and bought iodine and alcohol. The light reflected in the dim light. He carefully applied medicine to me. Occasionally, his thick palm stroked my cheek. My heart was pounding, but soon, under his serious expression, I swallowed my unnecessary thoughts.
"Actually, you don't have to worry about me, this little injury is nothing at all. "I deliberately pretended to be careless.
" is rare. I have always wanted to study medicine before, do you believe it? "After he teasing, I was amused by him, and the embarrassment was broken in an instant. After applying the medicine, he said he was afraid that Jin Haiping would find a place to hit me, so he kept guarding the door and smoking. I was in a stable mood for a while and said: "Brother Tang, go back. If it's too late, my sister-in-law should be unhappy.”
After a long time, he extinguished the smoke and said in a low voice: “She has been leaving for several years. "
Then, before I could speak, he said to himself: "I always thought I was so stupid enough, but I didn't expect there was such a man in this world, Xiao Bai, why do you have to hide from others? Why not just divorce? "
" Divorce? But..." I hesitated and expressed my concern, "My family received a high-priced bride price. My parents didn't allow me to divorce, but when I went back, I would have to be beaten. "
" Why did he hit you? Have you been bad for you since you got married? "
" In fact, part of his beating me was caused by his parents' instigation, part of it was caused by his inferiority complex. He had serious epilepsy and was very old and could not find a wife. My father was greedy for his family and was willing to pay , and felt that my mouth was crooked and my eyes were slanted, so I asked for it, so I spoke up and sold me to the Jin family.
"Sometimes he hit me, he would hold me and cry, saying a lot of good things, but once he saw his parents or was about to get sick, he would use hit me again to vent his inner depression and humility. In fact, he is quite pitiful Yes, some people say that he lives a short life, and I don’t want to be tied to him, and live a life of no human beings or ghosts, so I kept running away. "
" Haven’t you ever thought about divorce?"
" I thought about it."
"It's not a big deal to leave when you think about it. It's not a big deal to hide." He said and spit out a smoke ring. Under the vast night, a wisp of smoke scattered in the endless darkness. I suddenly woke up. As if a person was light smoke, he would be in a flash. After passing, I can no longer live like this, I will live openly.
Thinking of this, I felt a little more relaxed, just like the morning I left Foxin Mountain that day, I had extremely firm beliefs.
"Why help me?" I broke the quiet and finally asked this sentence.
But he didn't expect him to smile indifferently and said, "It's considered to be accumulating virtue and doing good deeds. Doing more good things can also be regarded as giving myself a chance to atone for the rest of my life."
I don't know why, but the moment I got the answer, I felt a little lost in my heart. , I feel so indescribable, and my inferiority complex is still there after all, so I lowered my head and stopped talking.
But he said slowly: "Don't you know what I used to do? I'm afraid of scaring you when I said it. I used to be a mess. I've cut people and been to jail. I can't count the number of bad things. You Look." He said, pointing to the willow scar on his face, and continued, "This is what I left behind. If it weren't for your sister-in-law's accident, maybe I wouldn't know how to repent in my life.
"She is a good one A woman is gentle, kind, but also stubborn. She almost broke off contact with her family in order to marry me. You must be curious, how could such a good woman marry someone like me?
"But this is what happens in the world, there is no reason to say.
"We two grew up in urban villages, and they are childhood sweethearts. Her family is not in good condition, and she and her younger brother are often bullied. At that time, I I like fighting, but I also have advantages. I don’t like bullying people who are weaker than me. Sometimes I have the feeling of a knight and will stand up for them.
"After a long time, it seems like there is a promise. She doesn't hate me, and I don't hate her. The more I grow up, the more I want to protect them.
"When we grow up, we will be more and more aroused our desire to protect them.
"When we grow up a little longer, we Although I rarely speak, I seem to be tacit, and I hide each other in my heart. Later, I mustered up the courage to chase her, and she is willing to follow me.
"Her family objected very much and felt that if she followed me, she would suffer. They thought I would abuse her domestically, but in fact, I was really good to her. Don't look at me fighting and killing all day long. To her, I couldn't bear to touch a finger. "
"How did she leave?" I asked carefully.
"In the past few years, urban villages were developed one after another, and they caught up with demolition. Every household wanted to ask for more money. What you have been to in the urban village is based on the northwest, and now it has built a community.
"At the beginning, her uncle's family lived there. In order to get more money, she became a nail household. The demolition was taken over by our boss. In order to get the nail household, all kinds of methods were used. Who knew that his family was incompetent in swords and guns.
"I really had no choice, so the boss handed over the task to me. He just had a good meal and said that if I couldn't take my relatives, I didn't follow me. At that time, he was obsessed with the wits, so how could he bear to let it go? I tried my best to go to her uncle's house to use tricks, but it didn't work, so I had a bad idea, and who knew I had put her in.
"I made a fake contract, and I finally made her uncle's family move, but I don't know why? It was revealed. Her uncle came to my house with a kitchen knife to show me a ruthlessness.
" The conflict between words became enormous. I was confused for a moment and knocked her uncle to the ground. As a result, the old man was furious and picked up the knife and slashed it at me. It was about to land on me, just as I was about to grab the knife with my backhand. At that time, she rushed over and grabbed the knife, and the knife slipped away. By chance, it slashed on her major artery. Blood was coming out at that time. We were all silly. It was a neighbor who shouted, "Send it to the hospital." I woke up suddenly, picked her up, and ran to the hospital with no life, but before I arrived at the hospital, I couldn't do it anymore.
"I will never forget her face that day. It is as pale as if covered with alkaline surface, covered with dry dead air. She closed her eyes and said intermittently, "Enshan, wait for me to go, don't stop." We are going to be in the society. We open a husband-and-wife shop, selling fried chicken chops, and live a normal life. I am afraid of fighting and killing all day long. I never want to live again, okay?
" She finished speaking Those words were cut off.
"I held her and knelt down and begged the doctor to save her, but everyone shook their heads and sighed. I felt dizzy. After waking up, I still didn't believe her and left me.
" Until today, I still don't believe it.
"After she left, I stopped mercy. I tossed a store in my own yard in the urban village. I packed up the stock during the day and went to the night market to sell fried chicken chops at night. In recent years, I only felt that I was when I was sweating and tired. Living."
Tang Enshan cried as he talked, sobbing, like a motherless child. After crying, he said, "I did too much evil in the first half of my life and suffered retribution. I have to atone for the second half of my life."
That night, the moonlight was gentle, we all uncovered the scars and faced the bloody past again. Although the pain was unbearable, we finally mustered up the courage to face it.
A few days later, Jin Haiping found my residence. With the help of Tang Enshan, I bravely faced the person in front of me for the first time. I told him that I would divorce him. As for the high-priced bride price, I would return it in batches. Give it to him.
Jin Haiping never dreamed that I, a person with a bad face, dared to file for divorce. He disagreed at first, and he also struggled for a while. But in the end, due to Tang Enshan's deterrence and I went to court to sue. Acknowledged it.
After several twists and turns, I sued the divorce successfully.

Because I had a good business in the night market, I quit my job in the wholesale market and devoted myself to running my own stall.
Hand-grabbed cakes are selling better and better.
When winter comes, the night market gradually withdraws its stalls. Tang Enshan sees me looking for work around again, and he said, "Xiaobai, why not work together. Where is the store? It's okay to divide the time period, and we can do it together. It's up to you."
I thought about it and didn't have much money in my hands. If I divided the time period, it was obvious that I was taking advantage. After thinking about it, I decided to work with Tang Enshan. He went out to the store and I paid some of the funds and labor.
After discussion, we started buying materials for decoration. On the day the store opened, Lao Qian sent a big plaque. It was also that day. Tang Enshan quietly told me that Lao Qian used to be a social slut, and he followed him and called Brother Tang.
Later, the boss got into the account and the people were disbanded. Lao Qian opened a slaughterhouse by himself, which was also considered a human being.
Our store sells special mutton soup, and when they go into the water, they purchase goods from Lao Qian's slaughterhouse. Tang Enshan makes soup in the kitchen, and I do odd jobs in front of me. In my busy time, I don't even feel that life is hard. On the contrary, there is always a warm and indescribable feeling in my heart, but it is so dull.
is approaching the end of the year, and the store is doing a prosperous business with constant flow of people under our diligent management.
After the New Year, the store’s business was relatively leisurely. Tang Enshan helped me find an old Chinese doctor with a particularly good acupuncture. He said that he took care of the store and asked me to try it.
At first, I didn't want to go, but I felt that it would definitely take a lot of money. If it couldn't be cured, my last little fantasy would be shattered.
It was Tang Enshan who tried to persuade me, saying that no matter whether it was cured or not, he would try it and realized that he was afraid that he had seen through my thoughts and said directly: "I paid the money, even if it couldn't be cured, I won't dislike you." . "After saying that, I felt my words go wrong, and immediately blushed to defend myself: "I mean I will be your lifelong brother."
"I don't care about my brother." I blurted out.
Tang Enshan smoothed out: "I don't care about my brother, I will be your elder brother. Hurry up, I'm still waiting." As he said that, he had already brought me a coat. At that moment, I was very happy and suddenly had the urge to become beautiful. So he quickly packed up and closed the door, jumped onto his three-wheeled wheel, and the two of them rushed to the old Chinese doctor's clinic.
The cold wind that hits our face, wrapped around our dusty expectations, stood in the Chinese medicine hall, the old Chinese medicine doctor looked at me for a while, and then slowly said, "Your face can be treated, but I want to be thorough. Recovery seems unlikely. If you can endure the pain, I can do my best to repair it for you."
When I heard that there was hope, I was so happy that I burst into tears. Even Tang Enshan could repair it when he heard that it could be repaired, holding the old Chinese doctor's My hand was grateful and refused to let go.
During the days of acupuncture, I spent almost every day in torture. Tang Enshan saw that I was really suffering, and said several times: "Don't pierce it. It's not about the face. This is a crime. I really don't suffer. It's right."
On the contrary, I watched my face improve day by day, and I actually stabilized my mind and gritted my teeth and persevered. After two months, my face changed a lot. Although it was not considered a good facial features, at a glance, It's really good.
The night when I returned from the Chinese Medicine Hall for the last time, Tang Enshan and I prepared hot pot at home. I specially helped him boil a pot of old wine. During the meal, the two raised their glasses to drink each other, and all the sadness that had been wore in the first half of our lives. I am extremely looking forward to the future of living hard.
That day, we were all drunk. After waking up, there was a thick spring snow outside, half a foot thick. I remembered the cold night when I left Xiaojinzhuang.
I remembered again when I was fourteen years old, when I first entered the city. When I stood in the nanny market, I was rolling my eyes and ridiculed because of my crooked mouth and slanting eyes. But now, with my stubborn spirit of fighting with fate, In this city, there is still some place to rest.
Half a year later, Tang Enshan and I received the certificate, invited two tables of wine, and got married.
My dad called me and scolded me for being so bloody, saying that I should not follow a scarred face in my 40s for a penny, and I will never end the hard days in the future.
I put down the phone and looked at a newly planted lilac in the backyard. I remembered the scene when I first saw Tang Enshan that night. Its fierce face was like a wolf dog, but it had a soft feeling. (original title: "After the Calamity")
