Huangnigou is a remote rural area. In winter, the Huangnigou is snow-white. However, in this snow-white scene, there are sounds of gongs and drums that are incompatible with it. This is not another sound, it is Cuihua’s husband’s funeral.
Cuihua's husband Shitou didn't know what disease he had. He coughed very badly when he was cold. His disease had been with him for many years, but because he had no money at that time, and Shitou didn't care about his body in order to save money, he finally ended his life in a cold winter.
After Shi Tou's death, Cuihua and his daughter Chuntao were left behind. The year Shi Tou passed away, Chuntao was only three and a half years old and was still an ignorant little girl. His father was holding a funeral, and no one took care of the little guy, so he started playing with snowflakes alone. Fortunately, the neighbor next to him saw her, and the kind neighbor took Chuntao home and roasted firewood.
Under the reflection of firewood, Chuntao's cheeks were red, and her two little feet were born from a pair of torn shoes, which were dirty by the soil. At this time, Cuihua didn't care about Chuntao and was still holding a funeral for her husband in mourning clothes. She was busy for the whole time, Cuihua looked very haggard during this period.
Rural people have no big wish, just hope that the people in their family will be safe, but bad luck will not spare this poor family in the end. Cuihua's husband Shi Tou is also a poor person in the village. Shi Tou's mother ran away when Shi Tou was very young. People in the village said that the reason why Shi Tou's mother ran away was because Shi Tou's family was too poor, Shi Tou's mother could not stand the poverty, so she abandoned Shi Tou and left quietly.
Shitou father brought Shitou up alone. Just when the days were getting better, Shitou married Cuihua, but Shitou's father got married in Shitou, which was the year Chuntao was born. From then on, Shitou and Chuntao depended on each other and became each other's support, but God did not bless people. Now Shitou passed away, and Cuihua was left alone in this world with Chuntao.
After the funeral of Shi Tou was completed, Cuihua brought Chuntao alone, a woman and a child. In order to seek a life, she had to take Chuntao to the field to plant crops. Sometimes Chuntao was so hungry that she was cooing, but Cuihua had no choice but to let the child cry until the child slept in the field, Cuihua was still planting crops.
It was not until the planting was finished that Chuntao carried home, and then gave it to Chuntao to eat. Life was very hard, but what is the purpose of life? Isn’t it just for survival? But it is just to fill your stomach, and this may be the meaning of Cuihua's life at that time.
Cuihua's parents also advised Cuihua to find another one, but Shi Tou's bones were not cold after all, Cuihua felt that it was not the time, so she always carried Chuntao alone. Until three years later, Chuntao was over six years old and nearly seven years old. Seeing that the child was about to go to school, Cuihua was also worried.
After all, I have felt it was quite hard and difficult to take care of my child alone in the past few years. Now Chuntao is going to study. If there is no warm home and no one takes care of him, will this child still have a future in the future?
Cuihua hopes that her daughter can live a happy life in the future, and also hopes that her daughter will not think of her hard work, so Cuihua decided to remarry. Under the introduction of the matchmaker, Cuihua married Dazhu, and Dazhu was also married for the second time. Her wife died of illness and left a son. Her son's age is similar to Chuntao, slightly younger than Chuntao.
In Cuihua's words, marrying Dazhu is just to live a life with her. After all, she is no longer the age to fall in love. Looking for Dazhu is just to give Chuntao a warm home so that Chuntao can experience the warmth of home. After Cuihua married Dazhu, she went to school with Dazhu's son.
Dazhu's son is Tianming. Tianming doesn't look very smart, but is a more honest person. Some people say he is a bit stupid, maybe because he had an accident when he was young, and he said that he seemed to be hurt at that time. This was also what the villagers said, and I don't know the specific details, but Tianming is not very smart.
In school, his academic performance is often the lowest, but Dazhu doesn’t think it’s not important. After all, from the bottom of his heart, Dazhu thinks that it doesn’t matter whether his child is studying or not, as long as he is safe and sound.
It is Cuihua's opinion to let Tianming and Chuntao study, because Cuihua should be more enlightened. Although she has not read any books, she thinks that studying can change her destiny. This may also have something to do with her experience. Because her family was poor when she was a child, Cuihua dropped out of school in the fifth grade. However, Cuihua has good grades and likes to study very much, but the conditions do not allow it. In the 1970s and 1980s, there were still very few people studying in rural areas.
However, Cuihua's fate is really bad. After marrying Dazhu, she was not very happy and often quarreled with Dazhu. Because Dazhu was biased and bad for Chuntao, Cuihua was very melancholy. Perhaps in the third year of marrying Dazhu, Cuihua got a serious illness and eventually did not escape the disease and left in autumn.
When Cuihua died, she held Dazhu's hand and pointed at Chuntao, as if she wanted Dazhu to treat her daughter well. After all, Cuihua did not give birth to a child for Dazhu.
Dazhu didn't understand Cuihua's words, Cuihua passed away. After Cuihua left, Dazhu sent Chuntao back to Cuihua's parents, but Cuihua's brother didn't like Chuntao and drove Chuntao out. Chuntao became a child that no one wanted, and could not read books. What can a child about ten years old do?
There was no way, Chuntao had to go back to Dazhu's house again. When he first came, Dazhu actually locked the door. Chuntao slept alone outside the door for one night. The next day, it was so cold that it was trembling, and then he drooled in his mouth. Chuntao, who had not had a full meal for a few days, was very hungry.
Tianming's child looks a little stupid, but after all, he is a child. Knowing that this is his former sister, he secretly gave Chuntao some potatoes cooked overnight. Chuntao took it and swallowed it voraciously, and almost choked several times. Dazhu may have discovered his conscience, and he didn't know what he thought.
He was so kind-hearted that he finally decided to adopt Chuntao, which could be regarded as fulfilling Cuihua's last wish. After Cuihua passed away, Chuntao and Tianming did not go to school.
Dazhu is not a good person. I heard from the villagers that his previous wife was so angry that he was so angry that Dazhu always did something unethical, either destroying other people's crops, damaging neighbors' things, or likes to do bad things behind their backs. Anyway, the reputation of the village is not very good.
That's it. Chuntao grew up tremblingly in such an environment, but after Chuntao grew up, Dazhu forced Chuntao to marry Tianming. Although Chuntao's life was miserable, she was very smart. She definitely didn't want to agree to her stepfather's unreasonable request, but Chuntao also knew that her stepfather was not easy to mess with, and she might be beaten.
So she pretended to agree to Dazhu and then prepared to escape quietly, but was caught by Dazhu, and then beaten up. Chuntao, who was beaten to the point of blue and swollen face, was finally locked in the room by Dazhu, asking her to reflect carefully until she agreed to marry Dazhu.
Fortunately, one day, Dazhu went out to do things a long distance away, Tianming opened the door with the key, allowing Chuntao to come out. Although Tianming was stupid, he was much kinder than Dazhu. Chuntao packed up his things and looked at Tianming. She knew that Tianming didn't understand these things, and she couldn't explain them clearly to Tianming. She just packed up her things and didn't care about saying goodbye to Tianming, so she hurriedly left.
When Dazhu comes back, Chuntao is no longer visible. Dazhu searches everywhere. After all, Chuntao has gone far away and can no longer catch up. Dazhu is so angry that he yells at Tianming.
Tianming is also a pitiful person. After Dazhu passed away, Tianming was unable to take care of himself. Fortunately, after Chuntao ran away, she married into a wealthy family in the county town, and her life was pretty good. Finally, she learned that after his stepfather passed away, Tianming had no one to take care of him, so Chuntao and her current husband discussed taking Tianming over.
Chuntao's husband is very kind. He was very moved when he heard something Chuntao said. Finally, he agreed to come over and finally reunited with the whole family. This may be the best ending. Although fate is full of luck, fortunately Chuntao still has a good home.
There is true love in the world, and there is spring breeze in the world. Perhaps everyone has indescribable insincere words in everyone's position. Chuntao's fate is not the sorrow of one person, but the sorrow of several people. Fortunately, God blesses kind people, as the saying goes, cause and effect, sow such causes and harvest such results.
