At that time, Linjiawan was lush with lush trees and clear water, and was a famous beautiful place with a radius of hundreds of miles. However, on the road, two little boys carrying cow grass were not in the mood to appreciate the moonlight.

Several years later, when Lin Zhongyue heard Lin Daliang talk about that Mid-Autumn Moon Night again, he realized that all the encounters in life were planned by fate for a long time -

At that time, Linjiawan was lush with lush trees and clear water, and was a famous beautiful place with a radius of hundreds of miles. It was the Mid-Autumn Moon Night, and a bright moon hung on the branches, which was particularly quiet and bright.

However, on the road, two little boys carrying cow grass were not in the mood to appreciate the moonlight.

"Daliang, you go quickly, it's so late, my mother is going to beat me up again when she gets home..." Lin Zhongxu hurriedly walked in front, not forgetting the bundle of cow grass on his back tightly.

"You are obedient...what are you afraid of? Wouldn't you be beaten? Xiaoxu, your mother's soles are not as painful as my mother's fire stick." Lin Daliang still shook slowly, biting the hairy dog ​​in his mouth.

"Today is Mid-Autumn Festival, I don't want to make my mother angry. It's all your fault. I have to chase the rabbit. I ran so far but didn't catch it..." Lin Zhongxu said, looking up at the bright moon above his head, which looked like the gentle eyes of his mother.

"Hey, there is no rice at home. I drank a stomach full of soup at noon, but it was gone as soon as I urinated. I don't have the strength to run fast... Next time I will definitely catch up with it, so we can eat rabbit meat ." Lin Daliang said, sucking his saliva, and his stomach started to gulp again.

The sunset has already set, and the smoke from cooking in the village has also dissipated. Only the sound of adults calling their children to go home for dinner are rising one after another in this quiet Mid-Autumn night.

"Listen, is your mother calling you to go home for dinner?" When passing by the poplar forest at the entrance of the village, Daliang looked at Xiaoxu who was anxious and deliberately teased him.

"No, right? It seems like the voice of Da Zhuang Mom..." Xiaoxu suddenly became nervous and spread his ears and listened carefully.

"It's really your mother! Listen again!" The more nervous Xiaoxu was, the more Daliang teased him.

The two children just calmed down like this, but they really heard some strange sounds. Deep in the poplar forest, a few faint screams came. After listening carefully, it looked like a cat, or owl .

The two children looked at each other in surprise. Because behind the woods is a graveyard, this place has always been a bit unclean, especially at night.

Xiaoxu was a little nervous and pulled Daliang to run to the village. Daliang was a brave man. He took off the cow grass and let Xiaoxu look at it. He plucked up the courage to go to the woods to see what was going on.

At this time, although the night was getting darker, the bright moon above my head was particularly bright, and the woods were not too dense, and the sparse shadows were clearly visible in the forest.

Far, Lin Daliang saw a pink package. He looked around and confirmed that the sound was coming from the package.

At this time, he already knew in his heart that this was an abandoned baby that was thrown away - because this was not the first abandoned baby they saw.

In the deep ditches in the fields at the junction of the two villages, they would occasionally see a few packages of this shape, mowing grass and picking firewood, chasing and fighting... I heard that some families who prefer boys over girls will drown and throw away their daughters in order to give birth to their sons. Those packages are discarded baby girls, and they are strictly prohibited from touching them.

Lin Daliang is naughty and bold. He goes up to the house to remove tiles, goes down the river to fish, fight and scold people... He dares to do almost everything that adults prohibit, but he never dares to open such a package of abandoned babies.

He really couldn't imagine what the situation would be like if he opened those packages, and was it like those little lambs that died unfortunately in his father's sheep pen, stiff and dirty... Every time these times, he would be glad that he was a boy, so that his sister Xiaoyan was not abandoned by her mother and fed the wild dogs in the fields.

Regardless of Xiaoxu's anxious call outside the woods, Lin Daliang walked over by a stranger. After all, I have seen drowned baby girls before, and this is the first time I have seen them alive.

As we approached, Daliang saw a blue snake entrenched beside the package, raising his head and staring at him faintly.

He is not afraid of snakes. The snakes here are basically non-toxic. The boys often catch them to play with them. However, this is the first time he has seen such a big and calm snake. Daliang couldn't help but feel a little scared, not knowing whether it was because of the baby or the snake.

He hesitated for a moment, and he still plucked up the courage to meet him. When the snake saw someone coming, it finally leaned over and left and swam into the depths of the woods.

Lin Daliang then saw clearly that a small baby girl in the pink package was babbling. Her face was white and clean, pink and tender, with a pair of big black and bright eyes, staring at the moon and watching it in a daze.

Daliang couldn't help but see it. He has a sister, and just over a hundred days later, the villagers praised his sister for being fair and beautiful, but this doll is much more beautiful than his sister.

In Linjiawan, this is the first time he has seen such a beautiful child with such a pink and jade carving. There is also the pink blanket wrapped around her, the printed butterflies on them are colorful and lifelike, and they are as beautiful as hers.

Just at this glance, Lin Daliang could no longer move. Although Xiaoxu was calling him back eagerly, although he knew that his mother didn't like girls at all... but there were so many bugs in the woods, ant , and it was very cold at night. Maybe it would rain. How could he throw such a beautiful baby here?

Thinking of this, Lin Daliang threw away the hairy dog ​​in his hand, leaned over and picked up the pink baby, and walked out of the woods carefully.

Xiaoxu was sorting out the cow grass, and turned his head and saw Daliang actually carrying a cradle! Because I have seen it a lot in the fields in the past two years, they know that the people who are wrapped in this kind of swagger are dead children.

"Daliang! How can you pick this up? That's a dead child, throw it away..." Xiaoxu took a step back in fear.

"What are you afraid of? This is a living and it looks very good. If you don't believe it, you will look better than my sister." Lin Daliang said, handing the package to Xiaoxu. Because Daliang holds his sister a lot at home, he is very skillful in holding the child.

When Xiaoxu heard this, he hurriedly came over. At this time, because I had walked out of the woods, the moonlight became brighter, and the baby's facial features could be seen clearly.

This is really a beautiful child. His pink face and his shiny eyes are dripping around, especially the pink blanket wrapped around him. The embroidered butterflies on it make her look like a delicate bud.

"Ah, it's so alive, it's so beautiful. Fortunately, you discovered it. Otherwise... But Daliang, if you take her home, won't your mother hit you?"

"I don't know either, I just know that she will definitely beat me with a fire stick again..." Thinking of her mother, Lin Daliang frowned, "Don't care, take her home first. Xiaoxu, please help me carry the cow grass, let's go to my house first!"

That's it, Lin Zhongxu carried two bundles of cow grass, and Lin Daliang held the pink package-the two of these five-year-old boys picked up a beautiful baby girl for Lin Jiawan.

——

"How come you dare to pick up dead children at home? Stop them back quickly and throw them wherever you pick them up!" Through the low earth wall, Zhang Meifeng's scolding of Daliang was clearly heard by Xiaoxu who was standing outside the door.

"Mom, this is not a dead child, it is a living person. It is very beautiful. Let's raise her, mom, look!" Lin Daliang didn't care about hiding from the fire stick in his mother's hand, and insisted on letting her take a look. He hoped that this beautiful baby could arouse her mother's love and pity.

"It's not good to live, I can't afford to raise you and Xiaoyan, so you can't afford to pick up this money-lossing item for me! There's no rice at home for several days. Don't know? Take it away quickly and throw it away wherever you pick it up... Don't die at home, it's bad luck." As a wife who was bought from the mountainous areas of Sichuan, she has no rice to eat these days. She is already hungry. In the poor family, the food for her two children is already tight enough, so she is in the mood to raise an abandoned baby.

"Mom! I won't eat rice anymore, okay? I'll drink soup from now on, and she will follow me to drink soup." Daliang looked at his mother with tears in his eyes and begged.

"Melon baby seeds, can you drink enough to drink soup? If you don't hit you, will you itchy skin? I will tell you that if you don't take her away, I will press her into the urine pot tonight and drowned." Zhang Meifenghu raised her face and began to scare Lin Daliang.

"Dad..." Daliang was a child after all, and was so fooled that he had no idea. He looked helplessly at his father Lin Chengde squatting next to the sheep pen.

Lin Chengde lowered his head and did not speak. As a shepherd, he is useless except herding sheep and slutting fish. He is unable to farm, has insufficient strength, and speaks dull. He can't even afford to raise his two children... In this family, he has never had the say.

At this time, someone's dog barked outside. The baby who had been quiet in Daliang's arms seemed to be scared and suddenly burst into tears.

Daliang held the crying baby and was at a loss all of a sudden. He begged his mother pitifully, "Mom, are she hungry? You feed her milk... You will take her away after feeding me, otherwise she will starve to death."

"Hurry it away quickly, what else can I eat? It is a waste to not raise it after eating it. My milk is not enough for your sister..." Zhang Meifeng said and was about to push Daliang out.

"Mom! Mom! I beg you!" The baby's crying louder and louder, and Daliang also cried anxiously.

Zhang Meifeng suddenly stopped because she glanced at the blanket with pink butterflies printed on the baby's body at first glance.

This butterfly print, the texture of this blanket, let alone the whole Linjiawan, there are not many people who can find even the bustling Liushu Town thirty miles away... This butterfly blanket is so beautiful, it's a pity to throw it away like this. Moreover, seeing that the child is pure and pure, like a rich child, I don’t know if there are any other valuable items on his body...

Thinking of this, Zhang Meifeng’s cold face calmed down, “Let’s do this, it’s fate to meet him. Give me the child, I will feed her a bite of milk, wrap her thicker, and put it on a cotton mattress, so that she won’t die of freezing outside.” As she said that, she took the baby from Daliang and got into the inner room.

The oil lamp is dim, and the moonlight outside the window is not as bright as the moonlight. Daliang can't see clearly what his mother is doing. He only hopes that she can soften her heart and leave this child behind.

After a long time, it was not until the baby cried again that Zhang Meifeng walked out with the child in her arms. At this time, no one noticed that the butterfly blanket on the baby was gone, but was wrapped in a layer of tattered cotton wool.

"Okay, Daliang, I have also fed my breasts, and I have also wrapped a mattress for her. We have done our best to pick them up and send them back to wherever we have... If she is lucky, she will not be eaten by the evil dog tonight, whoever wants to raise them tomorrow will take them away." Zhang Meifeng said, stuffing the baby to Daliang and pushing Daliang out of the door without saying anything.

She didn't care about the crying of the children outside the door, and quickly went back to the house to open the camphor wooden suitcase at the head of the bed, pressed the pink butterfly blanket and a small jade Buddha on the bottom of the box, and locked it again.

The secret of the baby girl's life experience has been locked for 18 years...

Xiaoxu did not go home, and kept hiding outside the earthen wall to watch. When he saw Daliang and the baby were driven out, he hurriedly followed.

The two boys walked two steps blankly with the baby in their arms, stood in the middle of the road and cried at a loss.

The child's crying soon attracted the neighbors not far away who were gathering under the big locust tree to eat and chat. They all surrounded them with bowls.

"Xiaoxu, why are you standing here crying if you don't go home for dinner? Where are you fighting cow grass? Hurry up and carry it home, your father is still waiting for the grass to feed cows." A handsome woman wearing an apron came over and took off the cow grass on Xiaoxu's back.

"Oh, Daliang, why are your sister crying? Are you hungry? Take it back and let your mother feed it." Daliang wiped his tears and looked up. The person coming was Xiaoxu's mother Liu Fengrui.

"Second Aunt, this is not my sister... This is the baby Xiaoxu and I picked up in the woods. My mother didn't let me raise it, so she insisted that I throw it back to the woods..." Daliang said, and started crying again.

Liu Fengrui was shocked when he heard this, and quickly threw Niu Cao down and looked at the child in Daliang's arms. When everyone heard this, they all surrounded them.

Because many people prefer boys over girls, discarded babies have been seen in the fields in the past two years, but the living babies picked up in the village are the first... Everyone started talking.

"This girl looks pretty pretty, it's a pity."

"It's a sin, who wants a son? He threw it away after giving birth to a daughter..."

"I haven't heard of a few nearby villages... Look at the clothes on this child, do you have any clues to your life experience?" As someone said that, he flipped up the mattress wrapped in the baby.

"What clues can you have? Everyone has a broken cotton mattress... Daliang, do you still have notes when you picked her up?"

Hearing this, Zhang Meifeng, who was hiding in the yard, couldn't sit still, and hurriedly walked out with her daughter, "Daliang, why are you still standing here? Why don't you throw this thing away quickly..."

"I said to Daliang, how can you bear to throw away this living child! This child is destined to be with your family. Look how much Daliang likes your daughter. Anyway, your daughter is still young and has milk. It's also a way to raise one, so I'll raise it by the way... …”

“Yes, your Xiaoyan has not registered yet. Then the two children will register for twins together, and it will be easier to save trouble.”

Hearing everyone say this, Zhang Meifeng was unhappy and rolled her eyes, “Save trouble? Can you grow up by drinking the northwest wind? No need to eat or spend money! I am enough to raise Xiaoyan, a daughter, and I still raise a money-lossing product from unknown who is not aware of this? This is not a kitten or a puppy. What you said is light, so you can carry it to raise it! ”

Everyone was choked by Zhang Meifeng and stopped talking. After all, in this situation, it is difficult for anyone to adopt an abandoned baby of unknown origin to raise his own children.

"Look at your unforgivable mouth, everyone is kind-hearted. Isn't this the child picked up by your Daliang..." Liu Fengrui was afraid that Meifeng's mouth would offend someone, so he quickly helped her smooth things over.

"Who said my Daliang picked it up? Isn't Xiaoxu still there? They picked it up together! By the way, second sister-in-law, your Xiaoxu can't bear to bear it either. Otherwise, you can take the child back and change Xiaoxu's wife when you are raised." At this point, Zhang Meifeng laughed giggling.

Liu Fengrui's face was a little embarrassed because she had married her brother for her. Before she could speak, someone joked again, "What else? Just be a wife for Xiaoxu. I think this daughter is definitely a beauty when she grows up, and it's good to be a child bride."

"It's really a joke. It's all the age, and she's still a child bride..." A loud voice came, and everyone turned their heads and saw that it was Xiaoxu's father Lin Chengxiao who pulled his daughter Lin Zhongyun over.

"Oh, second brother is here, you are here just right, my second sister-in-law is about to adopt a little daughter for you. Come and see, this daughter is so handsome, not worse than your Xiaoyun..." Zhang Meifeng said, pulling Lin Zhongyun over, "Xiaoyun, look, can she be your sister?"

Lin Zhongyun is already 7 years old, with a round face, and two pigtails flashing behind her ears, and squeezed to Lin Daliang. It was strange that when the baby saw the clouds in the forest, he stopped crying and smiled sweetly. The little girl fell in love with this doll-like sister all of a sudden.

"Dad, dad...I want this sister." Lin Zhongyun and Lin Zhongxu looked at Lin Chengxiao with a ignorant look. They didn't know that their father's decision would determine the life and death of the baby girl.

Lin Chengxiao smiled at Zhang Meifeng. In fact, he had already heard the matter clearly.

"Okay, my daughter loves my father. I was just about to raise another little girl, but unfortunately your sister-in-law has been sterilized and can't give birth. Besides, today's Mid-Autumn Festival, all families are reunited. This child came to our Linjiawan because of fate, but his life should not be lost. He has been lost once, so there is no reason to lose again! If you don't raise me, I will raise me!"

Lin Chengxiao finished speaking and looked at his wife. Liu Fengrui understood it carefully, smiled gently, and took the child from Daliang. Daliang sobbed, reluctant to let go but had to let go.

"Lin Laoer, your family has two children. If you raise another one, you are not afraid of getting poor!" Someone in the crowd asked.

"How much can a girl eat at home? I do more work and save the food. After all, it's a life." Lin Chengxiao picked up the bundle of cow grass, pulled Xiaoyun and Xiaoxu, and Liu Fengrui held the baby, "Let's go, let's go home and eat mooncakes."

"I'm talking about the second child, you pick up a child... I know everything in the countryside, I'm not afraid of raising it in the future, and my biological parents will live again. Come and ask for it? "

" I don't want it to give it to him! Besides, they threw it away, and they still have the shame to ask for it?" Without Lin Chengxiao's answer, someone has already retorted for him...

" That's not sure. What if this girl grows up in the future and wants to find her own mother, there are so many things to do..."

Everyone was still talking, and Lin Chengxiao's family had already gone far away.

The night is getting darker and the crowd slowly dissipates. Lin Daliang forgot about hunger and squatted under the earth wall of his home sobbing... He was sad and happy.

In fact, he knew very well that this baby girl went to Xiaoxu's house and was the best result he could think of. Xiaoxu's mother is much gentler than his mother. She is so beautiful, and this baby is so beautiful. They should belong to the family...

But why is he still so sad? Looking at the moon in the sky, Daliang remembered the baby girl's big watery eyes again...

At this time, Lin Daliang, who was only five years old, didn't know that the butterfly on the pink blanket had quietly flew into his heart, and the moonlight this night would become the white moonlight he would pursue forever in his life.

On the way back, Lin Zhongyun was very happy and asked jumping, "Dad, what name should we give my little sister?"

Lin Chengxiao leaned over and looked at the baby girl Hu Lingling's eyes, then looked up at the bright moon in the sky, "This is August 15th, the moon is really full, call her Xiaoyue, like you, the middle-class generation, the name is Lin Zhongyue. What do you think?"

"Lin Zhongyue... It sounds so nice. It turns out that my sister is the moon." Xiaoyun and Xiaoxu said, giggling.

While speaking, the family had returned to their yard. Liu Fengrui handed the child to Lin Chengxiao, moved out of the small square table, arranged the only few moon cakes and persimmons at home, lit incense, and worshiped the moon.

"Xiaoyun, Xiaoxu, all come here to worship Grandma Yue." The two children do not understand their mother's beliefs, but every Chinese New Year and Festival, their mother will burn incense and worship. This ceremony seems to have an inexplicable solemnity.

Especially tonight with the addition of my little sister, it seems to be particularly sacred. The children also changed their naughtyness and knelt down obediently and kowtowed together.

Liu Fengrui looked at the two children on the side, feeling very pleased, "Xiaoyun, Xiaoxu, you two are sensible, and your father said nothing if you have anything to say. Although Xiaoyue picked it up, since she came to our house, she will be your own sister in the future. You must be nice to Xiaoyue and not bully her."

"I know, dad."

worshipped Grandma Yue, Xiaoyun and Xiaoxu sat under the vines in the yard, happily eating the persimmons picked from their own trees, arguing whether there is really Fairy Chang'e ...

Lin Chengxiao and his wife were not idle. One burned the fire and the other held the palm stove, and soon made a bowl of egg noodle soup for the baby girl, feeding it carefully spoonful by spoonful.

The child is so young, and it is not a solution to always drink noodle soup. The two discussed selling the corn they just harvested tomorrow to buy a tits of milk to give the child the goat milk.

While speaking, Lin Chengxiao's mother shook her feet in.

"Don't you, I heard you have picked up a girl movie? Who asked you to raise this wild child, you will lose money, and go back to recognize your mother when you are raised, that's all the time." The old lady curled her lips and glared at Liu Fengrui who was holding the baby in dissatisfaction.

"Mom, aren't you bad ears? This news is quite good..." Liu Fengrui saw his mother-in-law arrive, and quickly stood up, moved a chair and took mooncakes.

"Mom! This is a life. If I don't raise it, no one will raise it... You haven't seen it. This girl looks good, look." Lin Chengxiao said, winked at his wife.

"I don't have that time to see it! I said, "Don't have that spare money, help your brother, marry him a wife! You are promising now. Your wife and children are warm and live a family. Your elder brother is still a bachelor in his thirties! Don't be full and don't know that the hungry man is hungry!"

"Mom, if you want to get married, you have to quit his wine and beating problem first. If you don't marry another person, you have to be beaten away..." Liu Fengrui couldn't help but mutter softly.

"Hey, I said the second wife, what did you say? Then, if the wife is not obedient, you have to be trained? It's like the second child is spoiling you, these wives are not worth it." The old lady glanced at her wife, then turned to continue complaining to her son with a sad face.

"Second, your father went there early, it was not easy for me to pull you a few of you. I have five sons in my life, and I became the daughter of Ci. In the most difficult times in the past few years, I asked your elder brother to be a bachelor and just change your wife. Why? It depends on your ability. Crop work is a good hand. I hope you can help your brothers. You can't just take care of yourself!" The old lady said, lifting her clothes and wiping her tears.

"Are you helping too few? These brothers, from plowing fields to plowing the fields, from seedling cultivation to sowing, which of their fields was not what Lin Lao Er pulled our own cattle for them to plow?" Liu Fengrui couldn't help but mutter.

"That's also my son's work, and it's not yours. Why are you so powerful? Besides, you are a daughter-in-law who I exchanged for with my daughter. When will it be your turn to interrupt our Lin family? "The old lady was unhappy and took the airs of her mother-in-law.

"What's wrong with changing the bride? Is the wife you get worthless? Isn't my daughter changing the bride too..." Liu Fengrui could tolerate anything else, but he just couldn't listen to others using her to exchange for her to talk about things.

Lin Chengxiao saw that this situation was wrong and quickly smoothed out, "Okay, okay, everyone during the holidays, say less. Mom, come and eat a mooncake. This... I'll just say it straight, this child is destined to be with our family, Xiaoxu picked up the life of the forest, and he will be the only one person. Since I met her, I will not throw her away again. I will do this today, and I will raise a little granddaughter for you. No matter what happens in the future, I will take it all my responsibility." Although Lin Chengxiao smiled, his tone was unrefuted and he was determined.

"Okay, second brother, you have a promising future now. I can't listen to my mother's words anymore... Okay, you raise you, I don't recognize this granddaughter anyway." The old lady went back angrily, and before leaving, she didn't forget to take away a piece of mooncake and two persimmons.

How could she have thought that in a few years, this money-lossing goods that she disliked would become a hot commodity for everyone to compete for.

Watching her mother-in-law leave angrily, Liu Fengrui teased Lin Chengxiao: "You filial son, you obey your mother's advice on your daily life. She told you to go east and you don't look west. Why are you so interested today?"

"Hehe, you can listen to her small things, but I have to make decisions about big things. As a man, you have to make decisions when you need to make decisions." Lin Chengxiao said, carrying Xiaoxu and Xiaoyun who were already asleep in the yard into the room.

Liu Fengrui also put Xiaoyue on the bed and looked at the three children who were sleeping side by side with affectionateness, "It's fine if you have your own ideas. Anyway, I have no status in your mother's eyes." Thinking of her mother-in-law's attitude towards her all the time, Liu Fengrui couldn't help but complain.

"Don't pay attention to her. If it weren't for this, how could I marry such a good wife as you? Why is it worthless? I have always regarded you as a treasure." Lin Chengxiao smiled, took over the conversation, and stared at his wife with a singular heart.

Under the dim oil lamp, Liu Fengrui, who was laying the bed and quilt, was not tall, but delicate, with a big black and thick braid swaying behind him, making Lin Chengxiao feel itchy.

He came over, but Liu Fengrui turned around and went out again. She wants to go to Zhang Meifeng's house to squeeze some goat milk to save it so that Xiaoyue will wake up and be hungry...

"Don't be busy, the child will not be hungry.I will buy a titty sheep tomorrow. "

" No, such a young child is not hungry, I know the feeling of hunger and cannot let the child suffer this. You look forward to the child, I'll be back later. "Lin Chengxiao felt a little sour when he saw his wife telling him about his childhood, so he understood her kindness and compassion for Xiaoyue, because she was also abandoned by her mother...

Liu Fengrui was the little daughter of Liu Laoqi, Liushu Town 30 miles away. She married Linjiawan eight years ago. In fact, at that time, the town was not a big town, far from being lively now, especially the Liu family living in the western suburbs of the town, which was even more in poverty-stricken.

Because of that era, the countryside had to farm and cultivate land, and farmers all had a lot of labor, so girls were not worth it, and girls from poor families were even more destined to be like grass.

Liu had a daughter and two children, but she didn't want to Rebirth, but at that time, he didn't know how to contraceptive, so he soon gave birth to his youngest daughter Liu Fengrui.

Her health was not good, and it was even more difficult to support these children. So, when Liu Fengrui was just over the month, Liu gave this little daughter to a family without children.

Two months later, Liu couldn't help but peek, wanting to know the child's condition, but saw that the skinny and frostbite-covered little daughter was thrown into a dustpan covered with grass. Her two little hands were like hens' claws, and she was shaking there, shaking, and she was dying.

"The child gave it to you just to find a life. You don't care about it, you want to starve her to death! "

Mrs. Liu cried and carried her daughter back, fed a few mouthfuls of rice soup, and the child recovered. In this way, she raised her for a while. When Feng Rui was five years old, her brothers and sisters were older, half of her eldest son was poor, and her family was famine again...

Liu Fengrui clearly remembered that once she was crying and hungry, her mother went to bake a cake and called her in for her to eat. She still remembered that the cake was very fragrant and thick, and her saliva was about to flow out, but she still held it back because her mother was hungry. She broke off most of the cake and handed it to her mother.

Finally, as the cake was about to enter her mouth, her mother knocked the cake to the ground, "Stop eating, there is rat poison in it! "

Liu Fengrui was stunned, and she just stared at her mother blankly. Her mother hugged the thin girl and cried loudly, "Don't blame her for being cruel, I really can't support her..."

sent it once but didn't send it out, and she couldn't bear it even if she hurt her once. From then on, her mother broke down and said that it was only two days to support her. If she couldn't support her, the whole family would starve to death.

Lin Chengxiao once asked her, and she would hate her mother for treating herself like this. . She said she didn't hate her. Because she was lucky compared to those baby girls who lost her life. Although she had been sent out, she still took her back. Although she wanted to poison her, she still couldn't bear to do it...

Every era has the helplessness of each era, and everyone has their own life. She understood her mother's difficulties.

Just like that, she was hungry and full, and she survived and became a beautiful and beautiful girl, but because of her malnutrition, It seems petite and delicate before it grows up.

However, the psychological shadow of childhood cannot be completely eliminated. The experience of childhood made Liu Fengrui suffer a problem, that is, inferiority and timidity.

She always feels that she is an extra person in the family. She trembled with her father's cough, and the look of her brothers is enough to make her frightened.

Before she got married, when she was eating at home, Liu Fengrui was always the last one because she was short , I was afraid of being hungry, always afraid that my mother would forget to leave food for her, and I dare not speak, always pretending to cough gently, so that people could know that she still existed...

It's okay, the days of suffering have passed, and life is getting better and better day by day.

In the past, Liu Fengrui was one of the best beauties in Liushu Town, and now, she is the most handsome young wife in Linjiawan. After eight years of marriage, Lin Chengxiao still regards this wife as a treasure. He knows that it is not easy for him to marry this wife.

This Liu family is not as poor as the poor, but the four children are rare. The boys are all very smart, the girls are all very smart, and there are many handsome men and women in the village who are very fond of the Liu brothers and sisters.

However, love can fall in love at first sight, but marriage has always been about a good match.

Although the children of the Liu family look fair and honest, they can't stand the poverty of their families. They can't afford to give gifts, and those who don't want the gifts are not favored... After a while, their two sons grew older and their marriage was delayed, and gradually became a heart-wrenching problem for Liu Laoqi.

However, in desperation, Liu Laoqi decided to think of another way.

According to the matchmaker, Wang Datou's family in the neighboring village has a pair of children, which is similar to their family, and is also worried about the children's marriage.

Since the two children are of the same age and have a good appearance, they simply don’t need a dowry or ask for a dowry. They each marry each other’s sister, and at least live in the same family.

That's it. Liu Fengxian, the eldest son of the Liu family, married Wang Xiumei, the girl of the Wang family, and Wang Jinxi, the son of the Wang family, married Liu Fengrui, the youngest daughter of the Liu family. Because Liu Fengxian was old and could no longer delay, he asked the Wang family's daughter to marry into the Liu family first and agreed to marry the Liu family's daughter two years later.

It’s a pity that women are too young to stay, staying behind and staying behind becomes enemies.

In the past two years, Wang Xiumei and Liu Fengxian have been loving and sweet, and soon gave birth to a big fat son. But Liu Fengrui changed his mind. Maybe it was because she was too ignorant before, or maybe she now has something to do with her heart, in short, she regretted it.

However, Liu Laoqi did not tolerate her willfulness and quickly married her into the Wang family. However, Liu Fengrui seemed weak, but he was also stubborn. He looked down on the Wang son... If the Wang family treated her so well, he would advise her in every way, but he was unwilling to live with him...

Seeing her parents and brothers sighing, although Wang Xiumei was attached and reluctant to leave Liu Fengxian, she couldn't help but complain by her pillow: "You are living a good life. I'm sorry for my brother. I haven't been sleeping hot yet..."

Liu Fengxian is a talented person, full of talent, and has always been a arrogant and conceited man. Now my sister is so reluctant again, and it has become a joke in the village.

He doesn't want to aggrieved his sister, and he doesn't want to force the Wang family. In this way, when the Wang family took back his own girl, he had to pick up his sister.

Wang Xiumei returned to her parents' home with her one-year-old son. She thought that things had come to this point and there was always room for improvement, but she didn't want to part with her from now on.

Liu felt that she had felt wronged her daughter before, and she didn't want to force her anymore, so she would be left alone.

However, Liu Fengrui felt sorry for his elder brother, so he took the initiative to beg the matchmaker to tell him another marriage, as long as the other party also has a sister of the same age.

No matter whether Liu Fengrui suffered a loss in his previous marriage, he was considered a girl who had married once, so he naturally could not have too high vision. It was Lin Chengxiao from Linjiawan's turn.

——

The day Lin Chengxiao came to the blind date, he wore a half-old cotton dress and a blue towel around his neck. He was of medium size, dark and red skin, and didn't speak much. Liu Fengrui sat in the inner room and took a secret glance and saw that he was a good player in the field.

She was just trying to compensate her elder brother, and she didn't have too many requests. As long as she was not disgusted, she was satisfied.

Lin Chengxiao is also a child from a poor family. He has a few brothers and a widowed mother. He still can't marry a wife in his early thirties. I had heard of Liu Fengrui's reputation for a long time. On that day, he only saw one of Liu Fengrui's side face and the dark, thick and long braids behind him, and he was already very fond of it.

That's it, the two of them didn't get a word, and the marriage was done.

As for Liu Fengxian, he had already felt ashamed of marriage. He was unwilling to make trouble anymore, but he could not withstand the hard begging of his parents, so he only thought that he had completed the task. Although Lin Chengci looked average, he looked smart and diligent, and was a living person, so he didn't say anything.

Lin Chengci has long heard that Liu Fengxian is educated and handsome. As soon as we met, we found that it was indeed worthy of reputation.She was naturally happier than anyone else, and she didn't care about the age difference between the two of them at all...

Since neither party had any objection, the two families soon led to the marriage - in this way, Liu Fengrui became Lin Laoer's wife in Linjiawan.

Although Liushu Town is more than 30 miles apart from Linjiawan, there are still people who know about the Liu brothers and sisters who exchange marriages with Wang brothers and sisters - Lin Chengxiao is one of them.

But no matter whether it was the wedding night or many years later, no matter how the couple quarreled or quarreled, Lin Chengxiao never mentioned Liu Fengrui's second marriage, nor had he ever asked anything about the Wang family.

It was not until a few years later that Lin Chengci, who married Liu Fengxian, went back to his parents' home because of this incident, and Liu Fengrui realized the reason.

It turns out that before she got married, her mother called Lin Chengxiao aside and carefully reminded: "My daughter follows you. The past with the Wang family will be gone. You are not allowed to make old accounts at any time in the future. You can never use this to reveal my daughter's shortcomings. If you can do it, you can take your daughter away. If you can't do it, don't recognize me as a mother in the future."

Lin Chengxiao agreed and kept his promises all his life. After many years of ups and downs after marriage, no matter how many years of love or quarrel, he never mentioned the matter of the Wang family. He never used this to control his wife - this is what Liu Fengrui always admired him.

Lin Cheng is loyal and honest, and Liu Fengrui is also thrifty and strong. I tried my best to quit the Wang family's marriage and married into the Lin family. Naturally, I had to live a better life so that I would not be laughed at by others.

So she did not dislike the poverty of the Lin family. She lived her life wholeheartedly, slowly supporting the doors inside and out, and soon spreading branches and leaves for the Lin family, giving birth to a son and a daughter, Lin Zhongyun and Lin Zhongxu.

Watching the second son live a family, and the other sons have started their families one after another. The old lady is taking care of the family to divide the family for her sons. She has been widowed for many years and has a bare house. There is actually nothing to be able to divide the family with poor and innocent families.

After a discussion, the old lady and her eldest son who was a bachelor lived in an old house, and the other sons each divided some food, furniture and livestock. Because the second son had a family and needed a place to live, Lin Chengxiao could only be divided into a thatched hut in the back row of the village.

The old saying goes, according to the plan, there is no poor man. When the two children registered, they caught up with the distribution of the responsible fields to the households, and Lin Chengxiao's family suddenly got the fertile land of four people.

He is a good player in the fields. He is proficient in plowing fields, ploughing seedlings, sowing seedlings, raising and laying croaking fields, and cutting wheat and raising grains. Now he has a place to use it.

As the famous Lin Laoer in Linjiawan, Lin Chengxiao's two "good handle styles" are well-known: one is the handle style of "shaking the swaying squid" and the other is the cow handle style of "raising cattle to make cattle".

All his slim wheat, no matter how horizontal or vertical, is straight and even. It is said that someone was dissatisfied and went to the field to compare with each other with a long line. He found that the ranks of farming were as straight as lines, and he was convinced from then on.

Lin Chengxiao can also make a cow. No matter whose cow is, no matter how stubborn the cow is, he will be as obedient as if he can understand human words. Therefore, others need two people to "shake the horns": one person holds the cow and the other person holds the horns. But Lin Chengxiao didn't need to. He picked up the cow's saddle alone. With a whisper, the cow automatically walked into the saddle cover. With another shout, the cow pulled it up and walked forward. He only used it in the palm behind him, and he didn't need to shout a few times. People even joked that Lin Chengxiao may have been reincarnated as a cow in his previous life.

That's it. The couple worked hard before the sun was out and the sunset was not yet resting. They worked diligently to farm and opened a lot of wasteland. However, at that time, there was less fertilizer and poor thalassin, and the grain output was not high. There was not much left after paying taxes and paying the public taxes. However, because of Liu Fengrui's careful calculations, the family gradually gained surplus.

It's spring. Seeing that his wife was still wearing the old clothes she got from her wedding, Lin Chengxiao took money to pull some flower cloth for his wife and made a new clothes for herself. Liu Fengrui agreed and went to the market with the money. He didn't pull the flower cloth, but caught two piglets back.

carefully raised until the end of the year, but he was not willing to take a bite. He sold the pig for money. After the Chinese New Year, he used the money to buy a calf. After two years of raising it, he grew up and sold it again, and then he got 300 yuan.

300 yuan, which was a huge sum in that era when tens of thousands of yuan households were very rare. It was also with the first money from this family that Lin Chengxiao bought a truck of coal, pulled a few trucks of sand on the river beach, dug a few square meters of soil, and used the cabin of the brigade to burn two kilns of blue bricks and tiles. With the help of neighbors, he built the three large tiled houses today.

This is the first among the young generation of Linjiawan who are the same age as him.

Just like that, after living in the cowshed of less than ten square meters for five years, the family finally moved into their own large tiled house.

A handsome and capable wife, a pair of smart and lovely children. Lin Chengxiao was satisfied and also felt a little regretful, because he liked the crowds and children. He wanted to have a few more, but his mother never cared about her grandson and made things difficult for her. In anger, the wife secretly ran to sterilize her...

I thought she would be the only one child in this life, but I didn't expect that on the Mid-Autumn Night this year, she had another little daughter. Lin Chengxiao was naturally very happy and treated this child as her own.

No wonder Wang Jianzi, the fortune teller in the village, kept saying, "Xiaoyue's daughter is a blessed person!"

"It will be considered useless. She was thrown into the grave and was not taken away by the evil dog. She could still live in a big tiled house and drink goat milk. There are not many children in the village who are treated like this. Isn't it a blessing? The neighbors laughed at him, "Wang Da Zai, you have real skills. Can you calculate the way this child comes from?" "

Wang Blind Wang rolled his eyes, and said, "The secrets of heaven cannot be revealed."

Although he has been prosperous, Liu Fengrui, who faces the loess and the sky, is still not as good as marrying Lin Chengci from Liushu Town.

That Liu Fengxian is a famous handsome man in the village of 10 miles. He is tall and handsome. He is also a rare middle school graduate in the town. He can write, calculate, and can be said to be good at painting and painting. He must be good at looking and learning. If he is not poor in his family, he has to change his relatives. Lin Chengci's appearance and family background are definitely not worthy of him.

This Lin Chengci is fine if she pinched her own tip, but after getting married, she also made money.

Although the Liu family was poor before, after all, their family was in the town, guarding the only market in three miles and five villages, and the transportation was convenient. After Lin Chengci married for less than two years, she caught up with the transformation of planned economy to market economy. The flexible-minded Liu Fengxian threw a few acres of land in the family to her parents and moved to the lively area in the town center to tinker with small businesses. He knew the words and had a brain, and gradually became richer and became one of the few tens of thousands of yuan households in the town.

The third year after marriage, Liu Fengxian built two in the town. Small buildings, dark red colored sand exterior walls, bronze iron railings, flat cement floor, smooth white walls... In Liushu Town at that time, it was a very impressive style.

With money and being influenced by the town, Lin Chengci slowly dressed up. When the materials of Deliang were just rising, Liu Fengxian asked her to pull cloths and make clothes; when the town was just popular in perming her hair, she and her little wife opposite the door went to perm her head with the wavy curls...

Lin Chengci, who was originally thin and black and yellow, no longer faced the loess and was facing the sky, and her skin gradually turned whiter. She picked it up and looked decent, and she quickly took off He became a fashionable and fashionable young wife.

After marriage, Lin Chengci always brought big and small gifts with him every time he returned to his parents' home. When the material was seriously poor, a pack of candy and two pieces of pancreas were enough to make the sisters-in-law in the family smile, and let the nieces and nieces wander around her, which was a great profit.

flew up to the branch and turned into a phoenix. Because of money, Lin Chengci became the sweetest person among the Lin brothers and sisters-in-law, and also became an example of a good marriage for women in Linjiawan. Every time a girl of marriageable age would go on a blind date, her family would say, "If you can find a son-in-law like Cheng Ci's family, you will burn the fragrance! ”

Logically speaking, Lin Chengci married the person he admired. A man is handsome and able to make money. He should be the happiest woman.But only she knew the pain in her heart and the tears she wiped from behind her back.

were two couples who got married at the same time. Liu Fengrui gave birth to his eldest daughter Lin Zhongyun in the second year of marriage, and two years later, Lin Zhongxu, but Lin Chengci's belly was not moving for a long time. He didn't give birth to his daughter Liu Qingqing in the third year after marriage.

There is only one reason for this - she admires Liu Fengxian, but Liu Fengxian doesn't like her at all.

On the wedding night, she was waiting for him shyly and nervously, but he got drunk and fell asleep with his clothes... He had never touched her before after the wedding.

Liu Fengxian has never been short of money and supplies, and has never beaten and scolded her. In the eyes of outsiders, this is already a rare good husband. Lin Chengci was only nineteen years old at that time, and was still young and a little ignorant, so embarrassed to say anything.

It was not until half a year later that because Liu Fengrui was pregnant, the mother-in-law accidentally asked why her belly had not moved yet, and she said it with a blushing face...

The mother-in-law was shocked when she heard that they had not had sex yet. She was stunned and quickly comforted her and said that Fengxian should be too busy and tired during this period, so she would be more considerate.

That night, my mother-in-law called Liu Fengxian away and chatted for midnight. When he came back, Lin Chengci was sleeping in a daze, as if he saw him entering the room with red eyes and crawling into the quilt without saying anything.

The next day, Liu Fengxian said he wanted to purchase goods, so he asked Lin Chengci to look at the store and ran out alone for a whole day... He came back when it was dark, and he didn't bring anything, but carried a few bottles of wine and some pork head meat.

That night, Liu Fengxian got drunk in front of her for the first time. After that, he said nothing, but just got into her bed...

From then on, Liu Fengxian seemed to fall in love with drinking and had to drink a few drinks if he had nothing to do... He would only be intimate with her when he was drunk. When I am awake on weekdays, I don’t mention being intimate, even talking to her is like one word or two, and I can count it.

Because of the slight relationship, the two have few opportunities to be together, so Lin Chengci has never been pregnant. It was not until three years after the marriage that Lin Chengci finally got pregnant as she wished. With the completion of the two-story building, his daughter Liu Qingqing was born.

Looking at his beautiful and soft daughter, Liu Fengxian's face, which was like a thousand-year-old ice, finally had some warm colors.

Since having a daughter Qingqing, Liu Fengxian's mood has been much higher than before, but he still drinks more and more. Because in recent years, he has become dependent on alcohol, and his anger at the wrong time and his sadness of separation can only be temporarily forgotten by the drunkenness of the sorrowful drunkenness.

Liu Fengxian has been in his life, and his luck is thinner than paper. Even love and marriage are bumpy.

It would be fine if the girl I like in middle school was not destined to be separated. She exchanged her little sister for a wife with a shameless face and married Wang Xiumei, who was quite compatible, but she forced her wife to separate her...

Although her current wife Lin Chengci is also virtuous, she always has ordinary appearance and figure, and she doesn't know many big words. She grew up in the countryside since she was a child and has never even made Linjiawan. She is naturally short-sighted in her knowledge and is more ignorant-Liu Fengxian always has some regrets in her heart.

What's more, the two-year marriage life that once loved with Wang Xiumei, was that one-year-old son so easy to forget?

So, he was unwilling to touch Lin Chengci for a time. As for why, he himself couldn't explain it clearly.

Maybe Lin Chengci is thin and thin, and always looks like a stunted girl, it is difficult to make him impulsive; maybe it is because his marriage with Xiumei died before has left him with psychological shadow. What if his sister regrets getting married again? Could it be that his wife and children are separated again?

For some reason, he numbed himself with his busyness every day and deliberately alienated Lin Chengci. This delay took only half a year.

Until that day, the news of his sister Liu Fengrui getting pregnant came, and that night, his mother called him over.

"Boss, why haven't you settled your wife with your wife yet? I only found out today. I said why did your wife's belly keep moving? What are you doing? She doesn't want to exchange a kiss with the Wang family, and you don't want to exchange a marriage with the Lin family. Marriage is not a joke. What are you doing? Do you want my and your father's life?" The mother said and wiped her tears.

Liu Fengxian just lowered his head without saying a word.

Father Liu Laoqi took a puff of his cigarette and said, "What do you mean when you are always bored? Are you going to let the Liu family break the back, or let your sister marry again?"

"Dad, mom, I don't want to do it, I just... I'm too busy recently..." When Liu Fengxian heard that he asked his sister to marry again, he panicked and quickly exonerated himself.

"It's so busy! How can you not sleep even if you are busy? If you don't mean that, why are you doing with the girl? You have already harmed Xiumei, will you delay another girl? It's a sin!" Liu Laoqi coughed violently when he said this.

Speaking of Xiumei, everyone was silent. The virtuous daughter-in-law who had lived in this family for two years married into another woman, and the fat and fat eldest grandson, who might never see her again.

"Son, I know you still pretend to be Xiumei and her son in your heart, but you have only two years of husband and wife fate, and it has ended. This is fate. Now your sister is pregnant, and the Wang siblings are all married. If you make trouble, you will not involve two families, but four families!" Liu Laoqi calmed down his tone when he knew that he had hit his son's pain.

"Boss, let go of what you should do. Your sister has been pregnant for more than five months now. Although she is a little poor in the Lin family, her life is quite hot. You don't dare to make trouble anymore... You are in your thirties. While Cheng Ci is young, let her have a few children as soon as possible. Your father and I are..."

"Okay, I understand, no need to say anything." Before the mother finished speaking, Liu Fengxian stood up with red eyes and slammed the door and slammed out with his neck.

That night, he didn't sleep all night... The next day, Lin Chengci only said that he went out to purchase goods but returned empty-handed, but he didn't know that he had gone to find Wang Xiumei.

In fact, he had already found out about the family that Xiumei remarried, but she had never had the courage to look for it... But today he wanted to go and see them mother and son.

Of course, he can't get close. After all, even if he is not afraid, he has to take care of Xiumei's reputation.

He just stood in a hidden place, looking at the family from afar, waiting quietly. Finally, after a young man took a farm tool to the ground, he saw his wife and children walking into the yard through the low wall.

The son couldn't walk when he was separated, and now he could chase the big yellow dog and run around the yard. However, Xiumei had not changed at all. She was still gentle and virtuous, hanging clothes on the rope...

There was an impulse in his heart... But just as Xiumei turned around, he realized that her belly had bulged. It seemed that she was in a good life now and was pregnant again.

The dazzling sunshine shines on Xiumei's calm and peaceful face, everything is warm, but his heart is cold.

Liu Fengxian just watched it blankly until someone walked behind him before leaving in a hurry... On the way back, he burst into tears. He knew that their fate was really over. In this life, he was sorry for her...

That night, he got drunk and finally got married with Lin Chengci - this life, let's do it, he, Liu Fengxian, accepted his fate...

However, after a few days of calm days, Lin Liu's family had another stir. It turned out that Lin Chengci accidentally discovered the short marriage history of Liu Fengxian.

Because when changing the bride, Lin Chengci was only 19 years old. The girl rarely went out and was too embarrassed to inquire. She only knew that she was going to marry a good man from one in a hundred, but she knew nothing about Liu Fengxian's exchange of brides with the Wang family.

In order to smoothly change the marriage, the old lady of the Lin family naturally would not take the initiative to tell her daughter.

It was not until after drinking that Liu Fengxian called his daughter Qingqing a son that Lin Chengci felt suspicious.Looking at Liu Fengxian's awkward and lost expression, with the sensitivity of a woman, she knew that there must be something hidden here.

At this time, she was already familiar with the women in the town, and there were also a few good neighbors. After inquiring and verifying from multiple sources, she realized that Liu Fengxian had such a marriage and a son...

Lin Chengci collapsed. No wonder he was depressed, no wonder he was cold, no wonder he had never liked her... All the grievances burst out, she did not dare to make a fuss in front of Liu Fengxian, so she had to run back to her parents' home and make a big fuss.

looked at Lin Chengci crying, and the old lady could only persuade her, "Daughter, if you want to blame this, you blame your mother and me. I didn't mention this to you in advance. I think you like him so much and have good conditions. Thinking of this is nothing! You see, you are doing well now..."

"Okay? What's the good thing? Mom, you don't know at all. If he didn't drink some wine, he wouldn't bother to look at me. I still said, "What's the matter? So, it turns out that there is someone in my heart long ago..."

"Who is there? Then it will be a mess after the division. I heard that they had no certificate at that time, and they only spent two years together. Now they are already married. The matter has passed long ago. Why do you think you can get this old account again?"

"But you all know, my brother knows it, so he keeps me in the dark and treats me as a fool!" Lin Chengci said, and burst into tears again.

At this time, Lin Chengxiao, who was sitting beside him, said, "Only stupid people have good luck! Isn't you the most enjoyable now? Besides, what if you knew about it at that time? Don't marry him? Just the wishful thinking at that time, are you willing to give up?"

"Don't say I'm wishful thinking, aren't you also fascinated by others." Lin Chengci said, and glanced outside the door in dissatisfaction.

"Okay, just be sure you two know it. To be honest, with the appearance and character of the Liu brothers and sisters, would it be your turn if they weren't married? You're all content! Life has just passed better now, and you're starting to make a fuss again... Ni, look at it, you'll enjoy the most now. Not to mention Linjiawan, even the entire Liushu Town is not as blessed as you. Live two floors, wearing a flower skirt, burning the waves, eating meat and drinking wine..."

The old lady said something inexplicably, making Lin Chengci cry when she heard it. I couldn't help but burst into tears and laughed, "What's the best, I'm just like a house filler."

"This is nothing. It's going to be put before. There are so many families who have married a few houses. Not to mention anything else, your mother was just a house filler... What's the matter? After all, it's the past, and it's broken. If a man is nice to you, just give you money to spend. What else do you want to do?"

"But he has a son! His heart is not on me..." Lin Chengci still refused to give up.

"Didn't the son follow someone else? Can they still give him back? When next year, Qingqing is older, you give him a son. The whole family will live a warm life, and he will forget what's there."

Seeing that his sister lowered her head and said nothing, Lin Chengxiao also took the opportunity to hit her, "Okay, don't be in a blessing without knowing it. Now it's not as good as before. The Liu family is rich. If you make trouble, Liu Fengxian shouldn't want you! As long as he has money, it's easy for him to marry a beautiful daughter like a flower."

Hearing his brother say this, Lin Chengci was really scared. She was going to pose and stay at her parents' home for a few more days. Thinking of this time she was making a fuss back to her parents' home, Liu Fengxian didn't say a word, and she couldn't stay.

dare not make trouble for Liu Fengxian, but there must be an outlet for his emotions.

Lin Chengci took all the wronged accounts to Liu Fengrui. Subconsciously, she felt that all this was caused by Liu Fengrui.

Especially when seeing the brother's caring and considerate look towards his wife, and thinking of Liu Fengxian's unsaltfulness towards him, Lin Chengci's heart became even more unbalanced.

Just like that, the two families who were originally close to each other became inexplicably alienated.

Liu Fengxian never showed up for this storm, and he was too lazy to explain, because the Liu family never concealed this matter, but the Lin family concealed its daughter, so no one else was blamed.

If she insists on making trouble like this, she will probably break up. Anyway, her sister is facing the loess and backs to the sky in Linjiawan. Apart from Lin Chengxiao, she is not very lucky and has no blessings.

Liu Fengxian even made plans to go to Linjiawan to pick up his sister, but Lin Jiaci actually stopped when he saw it, and he came back...

Since that's the case, Liu Fengxian stopped talking. He didn't have time to care about these mother-in-law and mother because he still had big things to do.

It turns out that Liu Fengxian has been taking the train to Shanghai from time to time in the past two years. One day, he suddenly brought back a wooden seagull camera that was more than one person tall, as well as a bunch of film, development powder, fixing powder, etc. Then he closed the door and tinkered around the room alone, and somehow he learned to take photos and wash photos.

So he bought all the relevant sets and props in one go, arranged the darkroom to wash the photos, and welded a large iron sign in front of the door, painted five big red characters: Fenghua Photo Studio.

That's it, the first photo studio in Liushu Town has opened.

After a moment, many people came to see the new things in the villages, and even relatives from Linjiawan came to watch the fun.

A wooden box was mounted on the high shelf, covered with a dark red cloth veil. Liu Fengxian lifted the veil and drilled it in it for a while, drilled out, pinching the balloon-like thing, "Come on, look here, don't blink." Then he counted three, two, and clicked, and it was finished. Finally, I gave someone a note and put a serial number on it, and the customer would wait a few days before picking up the photos.

This is not only the fresh look of others, but even Lin Chengci was amazed.

Especially when Liu Fengxian was washing photos in the dark room, it was even more amazing. She soaked in and looked at them once. There were only red lights in the dark room. He vaguely poured some medicine powder into the water. He shook it twice, and saw a portrait slowly appearing on it... His husband turned out to be so capable, and Lin Chengci's admiration and admiration were added to his heart.

As the saying goes, no one is concerned about poverty in the downtown area, and wealth in the deep mountains with distant relatives. Since the last time she had a fuss over Wang Xiumei, Lin Chengci rarely went back to her parents' home, but relatives rushed over to find her...

At that time, it was a rare thing for ordinary people. Photos worth 50 cents per picture were still a luxury for many families - but this did not affect the good business of the photo studio.

At the beginning, most of the children took photos of some stubborn elderly people, because when they walked in this world, they always left an image for the children before leaving. Later, there were various ID photos, and later, more people came to take family photos during festivals...

Two years later, when Liu Fengxian came back from Shanghai again and brought back a color camera and two large boxes of Fujifilm, the era of color photos officially entered Liushu Town.

Although color photos are more expensive and cost one dollar each, they still cannot stop people's novelty and enthusiasm. For a moment, the older girls and young wives rushed in, and Liu Fengxian was completely overwhelmed.

At this time, Lin Chengci went over to help. From helping to laying out backgrounds to posing for customers, from opening posts, collecting money to getting photos, she was influenced by her, bold and attentive, and she gradually learned to take photos.

When there are too many people who are too busy, the two of them simply have one camera. Generally, Liu Fengxian uses color cameras, and Lin Chengci uses the seagull black and white camera... In this kind of busyness and cooperation, the business of the photo studio is booming, and their relationship gradually becomes warmer.

So, when his daughter Liu Qingqing was four years old, Lin Chengci became pregnant again.But this time, she was more worried than joy...

caught up with the end of the year, and it was the peak season for marriage in the townships. People took wedding photos and family photos... The photo studio was crowded every day, and there were long queues at the door before it opened early in the morning.

After working hard for a day, Lin Jiaci and Liu Fengxian didn’t even have time to cook or eat, and their daughter Qingqing was hungry and full, and often took money to buy biscuits to eat at small shops.

Lin Jiaci was weak and busy, and her nutrition was not enough to keep up, so she felt all kinds of discomfort. She had to run to the town's health center every few days, which naturally delayed a lot of business in the photo studio.

Finally got busy for a while. That night, Liu Fengxian, who was lying on the bed, looked at Lin Chengci's gradually bulging belly and said, "Teach you have worked hard for a while, when your son is born, you can go ligate. One son and one daughter are enough, otherwise you will be too busy."

"What if it is a daughter?" Lin Chengci tried carefully.

"Daughter? It's true that a daughter is also fate..." Liu Fengxian put his hand back, looking a little disappointed, "Anyway, no matter whether it's a man or a woman, we won't have another child when you give birth to a second child. You can also get started with the photo studio business. In two years, the photo studio will take care of you, and I have other things to do."

"No, I'm not afraid of being tired, so I have to give birth to a son for you..." Lin Chengci was a little anxious.

"I don't think you are tired, but I'm still annoyed. It's really not possible. After giving birth to a second child, you can take your two children back to your parents' home. I don't have time to serve you here. Let me see, I still have to ask someone to help the photo studio..." Liu Fengxian said as he said that, he became impatient, turned around and went to bed wrapped in a quilt.

Lin Chengci can no longer sleep.

In fact, she had secretly asked the old Chinese doctor to take the pulse. The doctor said that her lower pulse was strong and she should be a female fetus. She was already nervous, and now she felt even more uncomfortable when she heard her husband say this.

Which man doesn’t want a son? His indifferent attitude is because he has a son long ago?

No, she must have a son. If she can't give birth to a son, she will never be able to compare with that Wang Xiumei in her life. She has worked so hard to earn her family property, wouldn’t she have to get the price of Wang Xiumei in a hundred years?

Looking at her husband's back, Lin Chengci felt that the two seemed to have returned to their previous cold time. She had just gotten closer to him, she had just become familiar with the business of the photo studio, and would never be willing to quit like this...
