In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Tianyuan was still working in Liuyuanhe, presiding over the work of the party branches in Luliu and Xingshu villages. At this time, the local economy had just started and the people were still very poor. They often lacked food and clothing. But under Tianyuan's leadership and after several years of hard work, people's lives gradually improved. At this time, people thought that Tianyuan had reached the age of starting a family, marrying a wife and having children.
With the help of the old people, Xiang Zi, a well-educated, gentle and virtuous daughter of the Xiang family, entered the pastoral life and built a warm family. There is a happy family of five: the eldest daughter Tian Chunliu; the second daughter Tian Chunhua. The two daughters have beautiful features and have inherited their mother's gentleness, virtuousness, intelligence and good looks. The third son, Tian Chuntong, is even more intelligent, lively and active. He has been obedient and filial since he was a child. He is the apple of the eye of the whole family!
is a student of the same age as Yuan Yuan from the same village. They grew up together, but their life trajectories are very different. Tianyuan has a chivalrous mind and a broad mind. In addition, he is exposed to progressive ideas. He is engaged in life behind enemy lines and in the army. He has long put life and death aside and works wholeheartedly for the party and the people.
Moreover, Yuansheng is suspicious by nature, not very smart, but extremely cunning. He also participated in the team led by Tian Yuan to support the front line. As the old saying goes, "True gold is not afraid of fire." When Yuan Sheng was performing his mission, his problems of greed for life and fear of death, fear of hands and feet, and full of complaints naturally appeared. Such people will affect the momentum of the entire team, and it will be a matter of course later. were removed from the team. Since then, he has been criticized and educated as a typical backward figure.
The old saying goes again: "If you don't belong to the same family, you won't enter the same family." The wife Yuan Sheng married was Yue'e, the daughter of the Zhao family in Qiancun, who was also suspicious and acrimonious by nature. In this way, the two have similar interests and can live together peacefully. Their son, Yuan Wuliang, is the same age as Chunhua Tian and two years older than Chun Tong. Yuan Wuliang inherited all the "advantages" of his parents—suspiciousness and suspicion, and a particularly strong desire to compare!
That was in the few years after the founding of the People's Republic of China. Due to the burning, killing and looting by the Japanese invaders, the social and economic deprivation occurred. Food supplies are extremely precious. But the local custom cannot be changed, which is to distribute pork to the villagers every New Year so that every family can live happily.
When the pork is distributed, it is organized by the logistics accountant. One person from each family draws lots to arrange the order. This is more fair and reduces the occurrence of conflicts and disputes. The number of kilograms distributed is calculated based on the population of each household. Large families will have more weight, which is fair and reasonable.
After the distribution, Secretary Tianyuan saw that the meat from Yuan Sheng’s family was not as good as his own, so he asked the accountant to change it, and cut off half of his own meat and gave it to the lonely elderly people in the village.
Yuan Sheng’s son, Yuan Wuliang, sent his share of pork home and told his parents that Secretary Tian had exchanged his own meat for ours. The couple immediately became furious, remembering all their previous one-sided grievances against Tianyuan. Coupled with the embarrassment of his wife Zhao Yue'e, Yuan Sheng felt that he had been burdened with a huge grievance and was about to burst into tears.
So it not only raises questions? , where does his resentment against the countryside come from?
Mainly because of the following points: The first is the reason for being the same age. Yuan Sheng and Tian Yuan grew up together, but their real situations are very different; the second is the difference in personal connections. Tian Yuan is open-minded and kind-hearted, especially He has been baptized by the party's revolutionaryism for a long time and has his family and country at heart, so both the adults and children in the village like to gossip with him and are very close to him. However, due to his own temperament, Yuan Sheng will naturally be isolated and resentful.
Speaking of Yuan Sheng, due to various reasons, when he mentioned pork, he angrily went to the logistics accountant Lao Wang and argued: "Secretary Tianyuan used his power to forcibly replace the good meat of the masses and take it for himself. Is there any justice?" If you don’t admit your mistake to me, go to the county and report the situation to your superiors immediately!”
