June 12, Saturday,
Fang Tang remembered that Lu Fei not only told the story of Chuntao that day, but also told the experience of Yuan Wei from beginning to end. At that time, he had the idea of writing, and thought: "What a holy wish!"
Haha, next I will tell the whole story of "Yuan Wei", it's quite interesting.
1. Parents Jinjing
Yuanwei's parents got married when he went to the mountains and countryside. His mother was a rich farmer and his father was also a landlord. He had a bit of a playboy temperament, but his mother loved him very much and didn't care much about him.
Speaking of Father Yuan’s temper, there is a little story. When his family was having a hard time, he borrowed money from everywhere and wanted to go to Beijing to join his aunt and open a steamed bun shop. For some reason, he thought that he could make money by opening a steamed bun shop in Beijing. This is considered "paranoid" in today's open society. No one understood it at the time, but Yuan Mu understood and supported it.
So, on Father Yuan’s chariot, the family traveled farther and farther. Later, the relatives' debts were raised, friends' guests were invited, and preparations were made to hit the road.
Maybe it was because those days always made people nervous. When the Yuan father was treating guests,
, he accidentally exposed his money in the car. Someone discovered it and told the police. When they landed, they asked the local police to take the two people away.
After everything was arranged, Father Yuan and Mother Yuan boarded the train going south. My father may be thinking about "how to make a name for himself in Beijing." My mother knows her father's thoughts and puts a smile on her face, looking forward to a better life in the future.
How much money did Yuan's father "show" in the car - "twenty thousand", which is nothing nowadays, but in that era when everyone did not have enough to eat, "twenty thousand" was a big deal for this couple from the countryside. A huge sum of money that the couple could not explain.
"It can't be explained?" "Is it borrowed?" "Is there any evidence?"
Yuan's father and mother could not provide any evidence. Apart from "borrowing", they could not explain the origin of the money - then Just "confiscate"!
I think it is arbitrary, but in the past sixty years, the country did have supreme authority.
The country stood in front of this poor couple with dreams, blocking their way.
Jinjing was not developing well, so the couple had no choice but to come back and continue to repay the "twenty thousand" they had borrowed for the country but had not used.
Fang Tang didn't know how difficult it was to dig food in the soil, but after the Cultural Revolution, they finally paid off the famine.
2. Go to Binjiang City
If the last trip to Jinjing was just a fantasy of Yuan's father when he was young and allowed to be reckless, then the trip back to the city many years later was really "dandy".
Yuan’s father’s fantasy when he was young may have come from his nature as a “rich peasant” – when people are full, don’t they have to think of something they don’t need? Rural people are simple, and in the countryside at that time, there were no such buzzwords as "creative" and "planning". They just said "having ideas". Listen, "having ideas" is so good. Then let’s not talk about Father Yuan’s “dandy” temper. Well, Father Yuan is a person with “ideas”.
Since the elements of Yuanfu and Yuanmu have been marked incorrectly, they no longer need to live as if they owe money to others, and their actual debts have also been paid off.
So Father Yuan needed to make a choice between living in the countryside or developing in the city.
"Go to the city! Go to Binjiang City!" A voice screamed in Father Yuan's mind... Mother Yuan loved her father. Although the passionate years had passed, she still believed that her husband was "a man with ideas" people.
Speaking of their move, it can be described as a hasty escape - they didn't care about the land and house at home, and just came to Binjiang City.
House and land are the two most important assets for Chinese people. Since they have been abandoned, the Yuan father and the Yuan mother are faced with the test of starting from scratch in a strange city.

3. Inverted Snake
When educated youths return to the city, there is always an organization to accept them, so that they can at least live with their relatives and friends. But they have nothing, and with only their courage, they will take root here and create a new world.
Agricultural registered permanent residence, find a job in the city, commute to and from get off work on time, and get paid at the end of the month. In the era when planned economy and were prevalent, it was almost impossible, so the two of them started doing odd jobs.
After a while, they discovered that transporting snakes was a way to make money. So he hired a car and took his eldest son Yuan Qiang to drive away the snake. Many years later, Yuan Qiang told his younger brother Yuan Wei as a joke that he was mixed up with snakes. Yuan Wei felt very sad and felt that life in his family was too difficult, so he decided to work hard for his family. Determination.
In fact, his brother had already made a similar belief in his heart and became an employee of Jianhua Factory after graduation. The Yuan family finally had someone who could earn a salary and make a living. Father Yuan and mother Yuan were very happy. They felt that after working hard for most of their lives, the family finally had someone in the system.
Although Fang Tang did not experience it personally, he can still imagine what Yuan's father and mother would say at the dinner when Yuan just got his first salary - Yuan's mother's face was full of happiness, and Yuan's face was full of happiness. There will be a rosy color after drinking. Yuan Gang enjoyed the admiration of his parents and the admiration of his younger brother. He also drank wine and vaguely promised something...
This is the beginning of a good life for a family!
4. Yijidian
At that time, they opened a restaurant. It is said to be a restaurant, but in fact it is a staple food restaurant mainly serving cold noodles. The hotel did not hire anyone. In order to save money, only Yuan's father and Yuan's mother took care of everything.
It was the 1990s, and the family was living in China where things were getting better and better. The Yuan Wei family's life was gradually getting better because of the eldest brother's work and the business of the family restaurant.
Yuan Wei knew how difficult it was for his parents and brother, so he seemed extremely sensible. He has already entered high school, which is a good time to meet girls, but the sensible Yuan Wei has no intention of falling in love. He said to himself: "My family conditions are not good now, so I have to focus on my studies!"
Yuan Wei has some good buddies, such as Lu Fei, Chuntao, Zhenyuan, etc., and they always like to play and chat together. In his senior year of high school, Yuan Wei had an idea - he wanted everyone to get together at his restaurant. The friends happily accepted the invitation. That's when Fang Tang joined.
The young people's party reached its climax easily, and Yuan Wei was very happy. His happiness was different from others. His happiness was that he entertained a group of his buddies in his own hotel, especially "his own home", which made him very proud.
In fact, the impact of this gathering can be felt until today. After that year, their class's New Year's dinner party became a routine. More than twenty years later, the reunion continued as scheduled without stopping.
As the initiator of dinner parties after the New Year, although Yuan Wei did not say anything, Fang Tang thought that his "little pride" could not be lost at all. Looking at Yuan Wei's expression at a party, he felt that he was a little "smug", but maybe it was because Yuan Wei was so proficient in Kung Fu that he had already practiced "no sense", which is unknown.
Putting aside his brothers, Yuan Wei is the most grateful to his mother for his efforts in the family - his family's shop is a bungalow in a shanty town. It is cold in winter and hot in summer, and it cannot afford the benefits of a house. It has the function of "isolating heat and cold from the outside world". Restaurants need fire, and it’s okay to use fire in winter. In summer, my mother, looking at the fire and holding the spoon, has to wear an empty apron, just to have a little coolness.
The shop was small, and my mother took care of the daily shopping. Bargaining with the vegetable vendors who were always willing to pay for every penny, not only was my mother able to do it with ease, but she also bought the vegetables after estimating the day's needs. After using them until closing time in the evening, There is rarely much left.
It can be seen that a woman's concern for appearance is far less than that of a mother's calculation of the copper coins in her hand.
Yuan Wei kept all this in mind, knowing that his family's livelihood depended on his mother's hard work. Whenever he thought of his mother wearing an empty apron in the summer, he made a big wish in his heart: "When I become successful in the future, I will definitely not let my mother suffer anymore!"
