Chapter 20 Life
Guo Hongjing's younger brother, Guo Tingyu, has played a lot of things together. As siblings, they have always had an antagonistic relationship.

Guo Tingyu is three years younger than Guo Hongjing, and she was a little follower when she was a child. Regardless of Guo Hongjing's objections, her mother also likes to entrust the little Guo Tingyu to Guo Hongjing to take care of her, and she is busy with growing vegetables or doing family affairs.

Occasionally, I also do some scattered temporary jobs in the surrounding area, and I can buy some fresh fruit at home, or buy some meat to taste. The family is too poor.

Throughout the year, I can only watch the fat meat come out dry after being put into the pot, and there is still a smell of oil in the dishes. This is the bottom line of poverty.

Seasonings are also indispensable, such as soy sauce and vinegar, or green onions in the ground, and pickled young ginger in the jar.

In the morning, the whole family eats a big bowl of noodles. Only the mother does not eat noodles. She ate too much noodles when Guo Hongjing was in confinement, and she can't eat too much noodles after that.

The joy of eating noodles is that you can start to mix a bowl of fragrant noodles with a few cabbages in the ground, and add a little leftover from yesterday to make it even more delicious.

A person's life is not a life, people always have to depend on the society, people are relatively weak most of the time, they can only support and cooperate with each other to make incredible things.

A family represents faith.A family's beliefs are complex, full of love and loopholes.

You only know how precious you are when you leave, and you are often broken when you are together.

Guo Hongjing's family also had a lot of conflicts. My mother often cursed and was dissatisfied with various things. In the year when my younger brother was born, my mother also suffered a lot.

Family planning is being vigorously carried out in various places. My father thinks that there must be a son in the family to carry on the family line.

No matter what you quarreled about or did something wrong, you always said, what use are you, you can't even give birth to a son.

In the third year, my mother was finally pregnant, and the whole family was very happy. Seeing that my mother liked to eat sauerkraut, I felt a little hopeful, and the beating and scolding of Chen Qun was also slightly better.

In the past, when I had a little bit of trouble, I used a heavy fist to hit Chen Qun on the body. On the head, Chen Qun could only block it. Most of the time, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen.

At night, he could only secretly cry alone under the quilt. Guo Hongjing has seen this kind of thing many times.

She is also often beaten by her father for no reason. She doesn't know why, and for various reasons, she is beaten once or twice a week.

She was especially afraid of her father, who always put a blue bamboo stick on the eaves, which was specially used to beat Guo Hongjing.

When I was pregnant with my younger brother, when I heard that family planning was coming, my mother ran to the mountain and hid for several days. She didn't dare to come down for a few days. Guo Hongjing also hid in the grass cage with her mother and found Houshan. The most secret place.

The next day a neighbor brought a large bowl of fried rice with eggs. Guo Hongjing ate half of it.

Eating fried rice with eggs in a panic, Guo Hongjing was very moved. This was the most memorable meal she had ever eaten. A large number of pregnant women nestled in a bush with them.

His eyes were fixed on the outside of the woods, afraid that the people below would come up, and everyone would be very angry. They didn’t know who told the secret, and if they heard that they were caught, they would be shot down immediately. If they had an abortion, it would be difficult to conceive.

The fate of this group of women is in the hands of their sons. After giving birth to a son, their own life will be easier. Whoever is not risking their lives to have a son.

Domestic violence and economic constraints make it impossible for them to escape.All the mothers-in-law are saying that men are like this, everyone is like this, just bear it and let it go.In a person's life, what things can't be endured.
