Chapter 7 Worldly
people can be simple,
Because life doesn't always want to be so tired,

But, simply our ribs,
A suit of armor is always needed for protection in hostile environments.

I hope we also have our own armor to protect our happiness.

There are many abnormal atmospheres in the small town. When everyone regards domestic violence as normal, violence and depression permeate people's heads.

The grown-ups all looked scary. Guo Hongjing listened to his mother chatting with the neighbors and aunts.A long time ago, a man in the town was very irritable. He often went home after drinking and beat his wife.

His fists were as stiff as stone.After many years of beatings and torture, the sick wife finally fell to her death on a stone.

In order to escape legal responsibility, he only announced that his wife had died of illness.Here it has not been touched by law.

But in fact, the fact that the middle-aged man turned to his wife every day when he felt unsatisfactory was obvious to all.But I don't want to get involved in this matter. It's just a normal thing for a man to beat a woman. When this woman dies, it can only be said that she didn't marry well, and she blamed herself for being less aggressive and died with this man.

Everyone in the town knew about it, and it was just an after-dinner joke.No one wants justice for this woman.Even her children were trembling with fear, adding childhood shadows to themselves.

At that time, cremation was not popular yet, so they were buried in such a hurry.My mother often told her about some things around her. Such things are not terrible. She often said that once a person dies, he will be liberated.

The man in one family is very fond of gambling. After losing all the valuables in the family, he bet his underage daughter to be ruined by others. Those people are all gamblers who often enter Fengyue places.

All of them are heartless dogs.

A girl who was still in grades dedicated her purity in this way. Later, she was also dirty, so she had to marry a very poor family and bear children for others.My mother is always lamenting that it is a virtue for people in this world to have a conscience.

Guo Hongjing never dared to imagine that such a thing would happen in this town. Marriage requires a dowry, and without a dowry, a dirty daughter-in-law would be married. Who knows what kind of treatment this daughter-in-law will encounter in the future.

Some people in the world are very cold and some are very hot. After a lot of experience, everyone knows how to protect themselves.She was lucky enough to do such noble things as washing and cooking.According to Guo Hongjing's understanding of this town, she may also encounter some normal mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fights.

"It's your blessing to marry into my family and give you room and board. It's just cooking and washing dishes, and the cooking is so unpalatable."

If so, she has fully integrated into the role of daughter-in-law, little daughter-in-law, she will have sharp teeth.

"You old man, one day I will cook this for you, and I will feed you that way, pick and choose, why don't you die sooner."

When the man came home, he would only say, "Talk to mom more politely, labor and capital have worked so hard to spend some days outside, just waiting for someone to find me to move the goods, raise your mother and son, labor and capital will be exhausted, don't worry about it." Serve me the food, what are you waiting for?"

The little daughter-in-law would curse and say, "Other people move more worthless things than you, and others earn more than you." Then they brought out the dishes, lit them up, heated them up in an iron pan, and then served them. to her man.

There is also a model couple in the small town. They farm the land diligently every day, and go to collect the vegetables at three or four o'clock in the morning.

Take it and sell it at a lower price to some small vendors who want to sell vegetables.After more than ten years of this kind of life, the daughter has been admitted to a famous university, and the family happily held a banquet, waiting for their children to be successful, and continued to grow vegetables.

Their days are very peaceful, men always put the heaviest burden on their bodies, women will also pick a basket of not a small amount of vegetables, they are diligent every day, united like hardworking ants.

The couple spoke very peacefully, and their faces were plain and plain.Their dishes are neatly arranged, and it seems that the vegetables are growing well and neatly, Xiaoqingshui cabbage.

Every mu of land has been carefully watered, and the most important manure is picked from the cesspit at the foot of the mountain, and some fertilizer is added, and the land is busy every day.

I can see their unpretentious smiles every day, and say hello to everyone passing by. My wife wears this neat and clean outfit every day, and her hair is cut very short, a little longer than boys’ hair, and also It was curled and dyed yellow, and it looked clean and neat.

Another family next to Guo Hongjing's family has five children, the youngest being a son. The husband of this family is in love with romantic places, and the money he earns is basically spent on eating, drinking and gambling.

If you are in a good mood, you will give the children at home to let them buy cigarettes, and you will get a pocket money of one or two dollars.In this way, her children like their father more. In contrast, their mother is always picky and reluctant to give them a penny.

Every day, my mother goes to the nearby plastic factory to pick up bottles, separates the bottles from the plastic paper flowers and caps on the bottles, puts them in different bags and weighs them, each of which has a different price.

There are still more than 3000 in a month, and the hands and feet must be fast and agile.This wife is already very old and has little flesh on her body. After working for many years, she finally took a day off to dig the soil with her eldest daughter and buy some food every day to make ends meet.

Her breasts are already drooping badly, her face is covered with spots, and her yellowish skin is unappetizing. Her husband will occasionally buy her nice clothes, and occasionally give her a little money. will be very happy.

It's like being a few years younger.But my husband always likes to hang out in the outside world. At the beginning, he vowed to drive and sell goods to earn money. After borrowing money to buy the car, he started fooling around outside again, and even built a small brick house not far from home to live in.

When the girls grew up, they started asking him for money, which annoyed him a lot.He also couldn't bear his wife's withered and yellow appearance, and he couldn't take it out at all. Every time he took it out, he would be laughed at by his colleagues.He seems to have forgotten that his wife was also beautiful back then, and even had a little money at home. At that time, he also spent a lot of effort to catch up with his wife.

Her wife kept saying that if she hadn't married him back then, she would have suffered so much for the rest of her life.She was complaining, she said that it was better to leave with a tofu buyer, but she was reluctant, and she had two children.

As a result, she became withered and yellow, without her original green skin. At the beginning, her younger brother and family members were against this matter.They were right, and she thought she regretted it.
