Chapter 188 Era 2 Marriage Story Male Protagonist
Zhang Shan's identity in this world is a man, the third child in the family, with older brothers and sisters above him and younger brothers and sisters below him. He joined the army at the age of fifteen and became a battalion commander at the age of twenty-five. His future was limitless.
But an unexpected change occurred in the original owner's life, that was Huang Xianmei, the wife of his comrade-in-arms and childhood friend Liu Jianjun.
Huang Xianmei and Liu Jianjun were married through an arranged marriage between their parents. There was no love between them. What's worse, Liu Jianjun didn't like her and was still thinking about his childhood sweetheart who grew up with him.
The day after their marriage, Liu Jianjun returned to the army and rarely went home since then.
But Huang Xianmei was very lucky and got it right the first time. Ten months later, she gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl. Although Liu Jianjun was very happy, he did not go back to see them.
But a considerable amount of allowance is still sent home every month.
Three years later, Liu Jianjun died in a battle. The original owner sent his ashes back to his hometown. He accidentally drank too much and slept in Liu's house. He was awakened by the noise the next day. Before he could react, he was punched by Liu's father.
"You are our Jianjun's good brother. Jianjun just died, and you are so impatient to do such a shameful thing!"
It was only at this time that the original owner saw Huang Xianmei crying in the corner. In this era, the relationship between men and women was still very strict. People like the original owner and Huang Xianmei would be criticized.
So the original owner had to marry Huang Xianmei and take care of Liu Jianjun's elderly parents and young children.
However, the original owner's behavior was still criticized, and he had no development prospects in the army. He had no choice but to transfer to civilian work and return home to become a deputy in the Transportation Bureau.
The original owner went into business in 1980, made a fortune with his unique vision, and eventually became the richest man in the country.
But the original owner had no children in his life, and the family property was finally given to the two children of Huang Xianmei and Liu Jianjun. After the original owner's death, the two children maliciously slandered the original owner in an interview and were very envious of their biological father.
Huang Xianmei never said a word for the original owner. As a rich wife, she danced with an old man in the square every day and had a twilight romance.
……
The time when Zhang Sheng came was when Liu Jianjun died, and he was on his way back to send his ashes.
Sitting on the old-fashioned green train, watching the scenery outside the window recede, Zhang Shan still held the ashes of his good brother in his hands.
The brothers are good brothers, but their parents, wives and children are not good people. Let's not talk about Huang Xianmei and her two children. Just talk about the original owner's physique that cannot touch a drop of alcohol. Many people in the village know it, but the two old people kept forcing him to drink. In order to ensure that the original owner would get drunk, they even poured a lot of wine into the food. The original owner had a terrible physique and got drunk after eating two bites of food.
Therefore, Zhang Shan now has complicated feelings about Liu Jianjun's ashes and is considering whether to scatter them.
But in the end she didn't do it.
After sitting on the train for three days and three nights, Zhang Shan felt like her bones were all falling apart.
As soon as he got off the car, he came to protect Liu Jianjun's ashes, carrying his own luggage on his back.
It took two buses to get to the village.
The captain had been waiting at the entrance of the village for a long time, "Welcome home, hero!"
The hero he was talking about was naturally Liu Jianjun, whom Zhang Shan was holding in his hands.
Zhang Shan's eyes also turned red. Surrounded by the crowd, she came to Liu Jianjun's home. Liu's father and mother were standing at the door, already crying.
Zhang Shan also saw Huang Xianmei. She was wearing a plain pudding-colored dress and holding a child in her arms, who was Liu Jianjun's son.
Another child hid behind her, but couldn't help looking at Zhang Shan.
Zhang Shan knew that it was herself she saw, not the urn in her hand.
"Jianjun, my poor son, what will we do if you die?"
Liu's mother snatched the urn from Zhang Shan's arms and cried without pretending. After all, he was their biological son, and the most promising son at that. How could she not care about him?
"San'er, thank you for your hard work in sending our Jianjun back home." Father Liu was also sad, but he still thanked Zhang Shan again and again.
After sending Liu Jianjun home, Zhang Shan went back to her own home without giving the candies that she had prepared for Liu Jianjun's two children.
"I hope San'er comes back safely!"
Mother Zhang wiped her tears and welcomed the original owner into the house.
"Mom, this is the candy I bought for my nephews and nieces, this is the cloth I bought for you, and this is the shoes for Dad..."
Zhang Shan took out all the things that the original owner had prepared for them. Naturally, she put the candy prepared for Liu Jianjun's two children into her own space. The amount prepared by the original owner was enough, and if she gave too much, she would seem like a sucker.
Father Zhang tapped his pipe, his eyes fixed on the pair of shoes prepared by the original owner.
Nephews and nieces surrounded Zhang Shan, calling her uncle in a sweet voice. Zhang's mother thought they were too noisy, so she gave each of them a candy and kicked them out.
After getting the candy, they left very obediently.
Zhang's mother locked the remaining candy in the cabinet and then cleaned up Zhang Shan's room.
When the original owner was away, his room was occupied by his nephews, and the smell of feces and urine was very strong. Zhang Shan wanted to go back to the army before he even went in.
"Is Zhang San at home?"
Liu Jianjun's father came.
"Uncle, I'm at home."
Father Liu said with a smile, "Thank you for sending my Jianjun back. I don't know how to thank you. Jianjun's wife cooked fish and bacon. Come over and eat with me. Tell me about Jianjun's life in the army."
Mr. Liu has said so much. He can refuse the meal, but they want to hear Liu Jianjun's story. As Liu Jianjun's good brother, how can he refuse?
Although Zhang's mother also wanted to reunite with her son, Liu's father had just lost his son, so he had to take care of him first.
Zhang Shan and Liu's father walked side by side on a country path, talking about the fun things that happened when they were little, like going up the mountain to catch birds and going down to the river to catch fish with Liu Jianjun. But it was basically Liu's father who talked, and Zhang Shan listened, occasionally agreeing.
"Zhang San is here, Jianjun's wife, hurry up and serve the meal!"
The Liu family has quite a few people. Liu Jianjun is the eldest, and he has two brothers, all of whom are married and have children. There are twelve people in the family, sitting neatly in the hall.
Zhang Shan walked in without stopping and sat next to Liu's father.
"Brother Zhang San, did you bring back my brother's war pension?"
The person who was speaking was Liu Jianjun's second brother, Liu Jianye. Liu Jianye was a lazy person. He earned less work points every day than the children. The same was true for others. The whole family basically lived on Liu Jianjun's allowance.
"The pension can only be collected by your relatives in town. I can't take it back."
"Relatives go? Then I can..."
Father Liu knocked hard on the table and said sternly, "Jianye, just eat. I can't stop you from eating. If you don't want to eat, get out."
Liu Jianye didn't dare to say anything and immediately buried his head in eating. Today he had fish and meat, which was comparable to the Chinese New Year, and he would be missing out if he didn't eat.
But after taking a few bites, my face turned red and my head felt dizzy.
"Don't mind me, San'er. Just eat your food!"
Wine was served with every dish. Zhang Shan picked up the clean dishes with her chopsticks and, under the expectant gaze of Liu's father, she couldn't help but eat a few more bites.
"Zhang San, if it weren't for you, Jianjun would have died in a foreign land. Thank you for sending Jianjun back. I salute you!"
"Uncle, please don't be like this. Jianjun is my brother. I can't just ignore him. He is a hero and we should be proud of him."
"Yes, yes, you guys are good brothers!"
Father Liu raised the wine bowl, clinked it with his cup, and then drank it in one gulp.
"Why don't you drink? Is it because Jianjun is your brother?"
Zhang Shan also picked up the wine bowl and drank the wine in it.
Seeing that Liu's father wanted to pour wine, how could Zhang Shan be so ignorant as to let her elders pour wine for her?
"Uncle, just sit down. I'll pour you some wine!"
When pouring the wine, pour the extracted alcohol back into Liu's father's bowl, and then pour yourself a bowl of water.
Father Liu drank three bowls and then passed out.
"Jianye has made a great contribution. Uncle is drunk. Hurry up and lend a hand. Send him back to rest."
Liu Jianye's brothers had just finished their meal. Seeing their father Liu who was already drunk and unconscious, they each took one side of him and helped him back to the room.
Liu Jianye realized it later and said in surprise: "Third brother, you can't drink alcohol, right? How come you can drink more than my father now?"
"This can all be acquired through practice." Zhang Shan patted his shoulder.
"Okay, enjoy your meal, I'll be leaving first!"
"Brother, I'll take you there!"
Zhang Shan did not refuse. Liu Jianye had been a follower of Liu Jianjun and the original owner since he was a child. The two of them were about to go out in a swagger. Seeing this, Liu's mother subconsciously glanced at Huang Xianmei.
"Sanwazi, why are you leaving so soon? Stay a little longer and talk to your uncle."
"Aunt Liu, Uncle Liu drank too much and has gone back to his room to sleep. I'll go back first."
"what?"
What's wrong with the old man?
Normally, she could drink two kilograms of wine without getting drunk, so how come she passed out after just a short while? She thought that she didn't buy any very strong wine.
Liu's mother couldn't stop it, so she signaled to Huang Xianmei with her eyes.
Huang Xianmei blushed and shyly stepped forward, "Third brother, it's getting dark, let me take you home."
Zhang Shan subconsciously took a few steps back and shook her hand to refuse, "No need, sister-in-law. Let Jianye take me back. I still need you to clean up here."
When Huang Xianmei wanted to pester her again, Zhang Shan pulled Liu Jianye and ran away.
The two were walking along a country road. The moon above their heads was very round and bright. The moonlight was so bright that they could see frogs and caterpillars on the roadside without a flashlight.
"Third brother, isn't that Wang Laizi? What is he doing so sneakily?"
Zhang Shan shook her head.
The reason why Wang Laizi was called Laizi was because he had a lot of pimples on his face, which were so densely packed together that he looked as scary as a toad.
So even though he was in his forties, he still hadn't found a wife.
In the previous life, after the original owner married Huang Xianmei, the original owner's sister Zhang Wu, because she didn't like Huang Xianmei, repeatedly made trouble for Huang Xianmei, so she was plotted against by Huang Xianmei and her innocence was taken away by Wang Laizi.
In the end, because she didn't want to marry me, Wang Laizi, she jumped into the river and committed suicide.
The original owner didn't know all this. When he returned from his career, Zhang Wu had been dead for more than half a year.
Zhang Shan flicked something at Wang Laizi, and saw him standing up with two frogs in his hands. "Ouch~"
Liu Jianye: "Wang Laizi, didn't the captain say that frogs are beneficial insects and that we are not allowed to catch them? Why are you catching frogs again?"
"Liu Jianye, how can you talk to me like that? I am your uncle after all. Do you have any tutor?"
"Bah, I need a tutor to talk to you. Wait, I'll tell the captain that you caught frogs again!"
Wang Laizi was not afraid at all. He was thick-skinned and didn't care about bugs as long as he could eat his fill.
After sending Zhang Shan home, Liu Jianye pretended to be pitiful and tricked Zhang Shan into giving him her water bottle.
Carrying the kettle, Liu Jianye walked slowly back home, came to the place where Wang Laizi was before, and caught a few frogs before going back.
After Huang Xianmei coaxed the child to sleep, she went to the kitchen to help. Only Liu's mother was left in the kitchen.
"Mom, Jinlong and Jinfeng are asleep."
Mother Liu nodded.
"Mom, Zhang San may not be able to stay for long. When will you ..."
Mother Liu threw the washed loofah into the air, splashing water. "My son just died, and you're so impatient to find a buyer?"
