Framed at the beginning: Female educated youth forced to marry disabled military officer

The Xiao family has five large blue brick houses, plus a courtyard, which is very impressive and is one of the best in the entire Qinghe Brigade.

However, there are many Xiao family members, and the five large tile-roofed houses sound grand, but in fact there are more than a dozen people living there, which is quite crowded.

There are five main rooms, and the middle one is divided into half as a living room, with a table and a few stools. In addition to receiving guests, it is also a place for eating. The other half is the bedroom of Xiao's father and Xiao's mother.

The two rooms on the west side against the wall live in the house of the eldest brother Xiao Xiangnan's family of five, and the other is the house of his fifth sister Xiao Xixi. The two rooms on the east side against the wall are occupied by the second brother Xiao Xiangbei's family of four, and the other room is occupied by him and his fourth brother Xiao Xiangxi.

In addition to living in the house for him and his brother, half of the house is used to store food, sundries and other things. Except for two single beds, two square cabinets, and a small table, there is no room for anything.

My sister Xiao Xixi's house is the most spacious one. Because only one of the four sons of the Xiao family had a daughter, she was pampered and loved very much, so she got a single room.

In a country where boys are valued over girls, Xiao Xixi's treatment of living alone in a blue-brick house made her stand out in front of the little sisters in the same village.

Although this distribution did not dissatisfy the eldest sister-in-law Liu Zhi'er and the second sister-in-law Zhou Xinghua, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother loved her. The eldest brother and the second brother had been doting on this sister since she was a child, so there was no big turmoil.

There are five children in the next generation of the Xiao family. The eldest brother Xiao Xiangnan has three children. The first two are daughters and the third is a son. The eldest daughter is called Xiao Qingqing. She is eight years old. She is thin and weak, but very sensible. She often watches while watching. The younger brothers and sisters were mowing the grass and picking up manure.

The second daughter is Xiao Lanlan, who is six years old this year, and the third son is Xiao Zhengyu, who is only four years old. When the adults have to go to work, the two sisters usually help take care of them.

The second brother Xiao Xiangbei has two sons, the eldest, Xiao Zhengjin, is seven years old, and the second, Xiao Zhengyin, is five years old.

Both of them were born with tiger-like heads and big brains, and they were especially loved by Xiao's mother.

When Xiao Xiangdong came in, several children were playing with dirt in the yard. Xiao Qingqing took the hand of her four-year-old brother Xiao Zhengyu to stop him from putting dirt into his mouth.

"You can't eat this." Seeing that her brother was disobedient, Xiao Qingqing had no choice but to break off his hand that was holding the soil.

Xiao Zhengyu burst into tears when he saw that the "delicious food" in his hand was robbed.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Xiangdong asked.

Xiao Zhengyu is the third child in the eldest brother's family. The first two are daughters. They finally gave birth to a baby boy. The couple is so precious. If the sister-in-law finds out that he has been wronged, Qingqing will inevitably be beaten and scolded.

"Third uncle, my brother wanted to eat dirt, and I wouldn't let him eat it, so he started crying." Xiao Qingqing explained.

"Oh, Zhengyu, did you know that you can't eat soil?" Xiao Xiangdong said to Zhengyu with a straight face.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Zhengyu was so frightened that he started crying. While crying, he scolded his third uncle for being bad.

On the other hand, Xiao Zhengjin, the eldest brother of the second brother's family, walked up to Xiao Xiangdong and spread his hands, "Third uncle, do you have any candy? My brother must be craving for candy. Give him one and he will definitely stop crying."

Several other children also looked at him expectantly.

Because it was not easy to miss his parents, he sent most of the allowance back home. Speaking of which, the Xiao family was able to build a five-room house with blue bricks and tiles because of the allowance he had sent back over the years.

He usually lives frugally and is not willing to spend a penny himself, but every time he goes home to visit relatives, he will ask someone to exchange some candy tickets and buy some candies for his nephews and nieces at home.

Country children eat candies as if they were celebrating the New Year. They remember it very clearly, and a few little ones also formed a habit. When they saw their third uncle coming back from the door, they came to ask for candies.

It's just that in the past two months, he hasn't given any candy to them once, and the attitude of several children towards him has changed from liking him to hating him.

"Uncle has something to do this time and didn't buy any candies. I will definitely buy them for you when I have the opportunity in the future." Candy tickets are not that easy to get. He also exchanged them with teammates who didn't need them.

Now that he is injured and at home, there is no place to replace him.

As soon as he got home, his mother took away the money and tickets in his luggage. The remaining ten yuan in his personal clothes, except for a small change, were all given to Meng Xiaoman along with the betrothal gift.

Last night, he argued with his parents until midnight before they agreed to give him a gift of twenty yuan. They even said in tears that the family could only afford so much. If he didn't agree, he would be unfilial and force them to die.

He also said that Meng Zhiqing's current situation and reputation had been ruined, so it would be good to marry her. Even if she didn't give a cent of the bride price, she would still beg him to marry her.

For twenty yuan, you can almost marry a young girl.

Xiao Xiangdong was so angry at his parents' words that he stayed up all night.

When Xiao Zhengjin saw that his third uncle had been stunned for a long time without taking out a candy, his hands immediately dropped.

Five-year-old Xiao Zhengyin, who was waiting to eat the candy, curled his lips and said, "Humph, you're lying. My mother said that you have become a cripple and will never make money again. You will definitely not be able to afford candy."

"Xiao Zhengyin, what are you talking about?" Zhou Xinghua went home to cook. As soon as she walked to the door of her house, she heard her youngest son's words. She was so frightened that she ran in and covered his mouth.

"Brother, don't take it to heart because children are ignorant and careless. You are tired after going out. Come in and have a rest."

With that said, he quickly pulled the two brothers Zheng Jin and Zheng Yin into the room.

After a while, scolding came from inside.

Xiao Xiangdong is not stupid, on the contrary, he is very sharp, otherwise he would not be able to escape from so many dangerous tasks.

He is fully aware of the change in attitude of everyone in the family from the time he was injured to now. I just didn't expect that even the children at home would become like this.

Maybe his mother was right. He was cold-hearted and unhuman by nature. After hearing these words, he didn't feel sad at all. At most, the look he looked at the children changed from loving to unfamiliar.

When Xiao Qingqing saw her third uncle's cold face, she was so frightened that she hugged her younger brother tightly.

Xiao Xiangdong pretended not to see it, went straight into his house and closed the door.

Zhou Xinghua patted her heart when she heard the door closing next door, came out of the house and went to the kitchen to cook.

Even though the third child has a pretty face, when he gets angry, his phoenix eyes look at you like a dead person, which is extremely scary.

Although Zhou Xinghua had a lot of dissatisfaction with him, she never dared to say it in front of him and only complained behind his back.

Unexpectedly, the naughty children at home heard my complaints and learned from them.

After entering the house, Xiao Xiangdong took out the hard mattress and an army green quilt on the bed, and carried them to the yard to dry in the sun. Then I put the sheets and dirty clothes in the basin, planning to wash them together after the meal.

From the moment he could get out of bed, he began to work under the words of his father and mother Xiao, "If the country does not raise idle people, how can it be so delicate?"

Washing clothes, cleaning, feeding chickens and ducks, watching the children weave baskets, any work he could do was given to him. If he didn't know how to cook, he would still have to do the cooking at home.

Whenever he showed displeasure, the two of them would openly and secretly say a bunch of moral kidnappings such as being inconsiderate of their parents, having no conscience, and being unfilial. After several times, Xiao Xiangdong stopped talking. Even though his legs hurt like needles, he continued to work with a normal expression.
