Pamper Eighties

"Your dad is so confused. When has my dad ever done a stupid thing? Who told you to be unsatisfactory, you can't even give birth to a daughter after so long, it's useless for you to envy Mengmeng, our old Feng The daughter of the family is so valuable."

Feng Laosan was actually very envious in his heart, but what he envied was that his eldest brother gave birth to a daughter. Before Mengmeng was born, how could his parents be willing to spend their private money to buy this and that? Of course he also hopes to have a daughter, but after working so hard for so long, it's time for the hen to lay eggs, and his daughter-in-law hasn't moved at all, so he's not worried.

Chen Hongmei choked in her throat and said angrily, "What's the benefit of having a daughter? When you grow up, you will marry someone else's family. It's a loser after all. What am I born for?"

Feng Laosan felt that her brain was caught by the door panel, why was she so stupid? He raised the corners of his mouth and said sarcastically, "You didn't lose money when your parents gave birth to you, and even made a big betrothal gift. How much money did you subsidize your parents' family in private? How come it's the opposite in your mouth? Already? Huh?"

Speaking of this, Chen Hongmei felt guilty, and she didn't dare to fight her man, so she said softly: "Why are you talking about this now? You can't give us a daughter if you give birth to a girl, right? Let's go back to your elder brother's house. Have you asked about his way of making money?"

Feng Lao San said impatiently: "What do you think you are in a hurry? My brother's house is so busy right now, even if you want to ask me, you have to pick a good time. You don't need to worry about this matter, I know it."

After contacting the village, the old man Feng decided all the strong labors to build the house. The next step was to move stones and cut wood on the mountain. Some woods were also carved by the old carpenters in the village. When he was done, he called his eldest son and the father and son of the old Zhang family. The four of them rode four bicycles to the commune, and pulled back the tiles of the four-cartridge. These tiles are enough for building a house. If it's not enough, go to pull it. It's so convenient to have a bicycle at home.

When a good day was chosen, the old Feng family began to break ground. First, the weeds and stones were removed from the wasteland. Everyone picked up their shovels and began to dig the foundation. Then they filled in the cobblestones pulled from the river beach and paved them. After a few layers of sea sand, and the foundation of the house is leveled, the house can be built.

They piled up black volcanic rocks, and filled the gaps in the middle with river mud mixed with dry straw to make adhesive. They lived in such a house, which was warm in winter and cool in summer. Taoyuan Village has built houses like this for generations. of.

Old man Feng invited 20 or 30 people to help. This daily meal is also a big project. Madam Feng simply led her three daughters-in-law to build a stove and set up a big pot on the site. The white rice is a big pot. A large pot is steamed like this, the soup is seaweed shell soup, and the dish is fried air-dried pork with Chinese cabbage. Mrs. Feng is very willing to eat meat. The air-dried meat in the dish is in large pieces. They all shouted their kindness. They went to build houses for other people's homes, but they couldn't eat such good food. This old Feng's family is open and bright.

The villagers ate well and gave up their energy. Twenty or thirty people worked from morning to night. The number of people was great, and it took only three or four days to build the house.

On the day he entered the house, old man Feng brought Mengmeng to see the new house, he pushed open the door and walked into the yard, pointed to the row of five houses and said to Mengmeng, "Do you think this house is well-built? It's a large bay, and two small rooms have been built on the left and right sides, which can be used as utility rooms or thatched huts in the future."

Old Madam Feng was worshipping God in the room, Old Man Feng led Mengmeng in directly, and said triumphantly, "Look at the beams and roofs above, they are all made of the best wood on the mountain. These doors and windows are all made of wood. It was made by an old master in the village. The pillars and other materials are also good materials. When grandpa will make you a row of cabinets and put them in, just like the state-owned store in the city, put a few tables and chairs. , our grocery store can be opened."

Old Man Feng walked over and opened the window to let the sea breeze blow in from the outside. He immediately felt a burst of coolness. He stood in the middle of the room and said, "How is it? Do you think it is spacious? In a few days, Grandpa will ask an electrician to come over and pull the wires. , both our house and Brother Rui’s house will have to pull the wires. In the future, there will be electric lights at night, not to mention how bright it will be. This place will be yours from now on. Tell grandpa, are you happy?”

Mengmeng looked around the room curiously, she could understand what her grandfather said, this house was a big toy for her, she happily clapped her little hands and said, "Hee hee great, I like it ."

Seeing that the commissary had been built, Feng Laosan guessed that he would come to Old Feng. He knew that his father loved him more, and it was more reliable to ask his father than to ask his mother. I saw his dad.

When old man Feng got up in the morning, he went to work in the watermelon field. The professor Hao gave them several instructions, telling them to be diligent in watering and fertilizing watermelons. While he was still at home, old man Feng often came to tend the watermelon field. This watermelon is also growing vigorously, with a green vine growing close to the ground. They planted it early, and now they have produced small watermelons the size of their fists. They are very tender and cute. The kung fu should be mature.

Old man Feng was calculating the price of these watermelons in his heart, and a happy smile appeared on his face, when he heard a shout from behind: "Dad, are you working on the crops?"

The old man Feng knew that it was the third child of his family. He turned around and sat on the field ridge and said, "Didn't you see it all? Come on, what's the matter?"

Feng Laosan also sat on the field ridge, and began to talk to his father: "Dad is like this, five children and six children are growing up day by day, after this, it will cost money to go to school and marry a daughter-in-law. You taught me that you have to take one step and three steps to be a human being, and when I think about them in the future, I can't help worrying about them, thinking about whether I can make more money and save it, so that I can use it for the future."

The old man Feng lifted his eyelids and glanced at him, and said with some hatred: "Third, you have been married for so many years, and your family has not saved any money? It's not that Dad wants to talk about you, what are you two doing? went?"

Feng Laosan grabbed the back of his head and said a little embarrassedly: "Dad, it's not like you don't know how these two live together, it's all my fault that my mother-in-law doesn't know how to handle it. She doesn't have enough money to spend, and the family's income says There are very few truths, and I am so anxious that I can’t do it… Dad, look, if there is any way to make money, can you take me with you? I’m not afraid of suffering and suffering, as long as you can make money, you can ask me to do anything.”

Old Man Feng said with a smile: "Where is the money going, don't you have any idea? You are not afraid that no matter how much money you earn, your daughter-in-law will move it back to her parents' house? Did you come to ask? Hey, I said the third child, your brain was pretty good when you were young, but why did you become like this when you grew up? I taught you to take one step and three steps, but I also taught you to be a human being You have to take it one step at a time. You can't even handle your own mother-in-law. When you go out and move someone's finger, you even have the skin torn apart and eaten clean. You should just stay at home and farm. For example, you also know how to grow several acres of watermelon fields, this is a good way for you.”

Feng Laosan's face turned pale, and quickly flushed red. He pursed his lips and said unwillingly, "Dad, I am also your own, can't you take me with you? I can endure any hardship. dad."

Old man Feng stared straight at him, as if to see into his heart, "Thirdest, Dad is not afraid to tell you the truth, I have a way to make money, but do you have any money? You and your elder brother have separated from each other. Brother, can your eldest brother come up with the capital, can you? You can't let me tear down the wall of your eldest brother's house to subsidize your house, right? You go to the village to see, which one has such a reason? If you can If you come up with a few hundred yuan of capital, I can talk to your elder brother, right? This man is old, and in the future, I will rely on your elder brother to support me in the old age, and it will not be easy for me and your mother. "

Feng Laosan walked back in disappointment. His father asked him to come up with the capital. Where does he have the capital? Don't say a few hundred dollars, even if it's a few dozen dollars, his house doesn't have it now, so he asked his old man to scavenge it. He ran all the way to the beach, squatting on the edge of the beach and regretting it, and he didn't know what he was regretting.

The family matters have been settled. The two old men of the old Feng family and the old Zhang family plan to go to the south again. This day, the old man came to the old Feng family to discuss it. Before leaving, he saw Mengmeng standing in front of the sheep pen and grabbed a handful of them. The hay was feeding the sheep, he suddenly remembered something, walked over and said with a smile: "Mengmeng is so good, you are feeding the sheep? Do you still have pebbles? Can you give one to Grandpa Zhang?"

Mengmeng patted her clean little hands and said, "I'll get it at home."

Mengmeng ran back to the room and took out a small stone. Old Man Zhang took it and looked at it carefully. It was similar to Old Man Feng's. He happily took it away and planned to send it to the mountain god. Fairy.

The next day, Feng Yimin and Zhang Guangming rode their bicycles and took the two old men out for a train. When they came back, they followed an electrician. The old Feng family wanted to pull the wires, and the old Zhang family also pulled the wires. Even in the canteen, the wires were pulled up. .

This was the first time someone in Taoyuan Village had pulled wires from their home. The whole village ran out to watch. When the electrician pulled the wires to the canteen and turned on the light bulbs, the whole house was illuminated very brightly. There are five large tile-roofed houses in total. The two on the left are used as ice drinking rooms. There are American ice drinking machines and more than a dozen tables. The other three are still empty now, and the shelves are all ready. .

Everyone in the village was stunned by the generosity of the old Feng family, and soon a woman whispered behind her back: "Hey, have you heard? The village head's canteen is for his little girl, you Is it strange that this old Feng family is so kind to a girl?"

The villagers have long been used to it, and one villager said, "What's wrong with this? Didn't the old village chief say it? It took a hundred years to give birth to a baby girl, and their family would have to die. Does it hurt? If I leave it in my house, it will be the same for me. Having too many sons is worthless, and it is only rare to have a daughter."

"Hey, it's like you don't want to have a son in your family, Rabbit, how do I remember that you have three sons in your family and you want to have another one?" The person who spoke was from a wealthy family, and she was just among the villagers. When I visited the canteen of the old Feng family, I felt sour in my heart, "The people of the old Feng family are either stupid or stupid. They are so good to a loser, there is so much money that there is nowhere to spend it."

The mouse is not easy to mess with, he used to be a coward, but now he is not cowardly, he squinted his eyes and said, "Old Feng's family is rich, they can spend whatever they like, and it's hard to put money away. Give you flowers? Why don't you take a **** and take a picture of yourself? I didn't earn a few dollars, but I can say a lot of sour words. You are not ashamed, but I am also ashamed of you, and you have lost the face of our Taoyuan Village. "

The words of the mouse just hit the sore spot of the rich family. The last time there were tourists in the village, their house was so dilapidated and dirty that no tourists wanted to live in their house, and no one would come to her house to eat if no one lived. , In addition, her man's foot was injured again, so she couldn't take tourists out to go fishing. She sold coconuts by herself. The coconuts were too small and no one wanted to buy them. Everyone else made money. Even Feng Dakang, the lazy man in the village, made some money, but their family didn't even get any hair. She suffocated when she thought about it.
