Siheyuan: Buyers get rich from hunting

Liu Xiaoxia always felt that being born in the Liu family was the happiest thing.

Happiness is always achieved through comparison.

It has been so many years since feudal superstition was abolished and gender equality has been advocated, but in the vast rural areas, boys are still favored over girls.

There are even some extreme cases of drowning baby girls in remote areas.

Compared with these, Liu Xiaoxia feels very lucky.

Although it is impossible for people in the family to distribute all the love equally, she still grew up in an environment of love.

This is the luckiest thing, and the second thing is that I have a brother like Liu Ping'an who is very capable and cares about his family.

She didn't expect that she, who hadn't even graduated from junior high school, could come to the city and eat commercial grain!

And it's such an easy job.

She also met her good friend Li Xin, and her horizons were broadening every day. She was excited every day when she thought about bringing her parents and sister to live in the city in the future.

After work, Liu Xiaoxia happily greeted Li Xin and watched her get into Huang Qiaolan's car before following Sister Su towards the courtyard.

Sister Su's family is also well off. Her husband is a worker in a steel rolling mill, and they are a dual-income family.

He lived a good life and was a kind and friendly person.

To Liu Xiaoxia, she is like a close older sister.

"Xiaoxia, Stationmaster Yang said that you can move into the house allocated by the street next month. How about that? Are you excited?"

Sister Su especially likes Xiaoxia, a simple child who is well-behaved, sensible and pretty.

And he also has a very promising brother.

If Sister Su's children were not so young and she had no nephews, she would have wanted to introduce one to Xiaoxia.

To Sister Su's surprise, Liu Xiaoxia was not very excited, and was even a little sad.

Because according to her current conditions, even if she wants to bring her parents and sister over, she has to work for at least a year. Otherwise, with her salary, her parents definitely don't want to move to the city and burden her.

Therefore Xiaoxia had to live alone.

She finally adapted to the atmosphere of the courtyard house and lived with her brother.

When she really had to live alone, she felt a little sad.

She told her thoughts to Sister Su. Sister Su smiled when she heard Zhan Yan and patted Xiao Xia on the shoulder: "It's human nature. It's okay. We are all in the city. Your brother is a buyer and doesn't work during normal times. The contact time will not be short."

"Besides, you are already a grown-up girl, you have to start a family and build a career, right?"

Liu Xiaoxia felt a little shy when she heard about this kind of thing, as girls of her age are all just beginning to fall in love.

But they did not have as many fantasies about their other half as women in later generations.

I just hope that he is an honest person, doesn't commit domestic violence, and can take care of the family.

As for love.

Although it is free love, most people meet each other through blind dates, and the love timeline is not as long as in later generations, so it is easy to meet bad people and families.

Qin Huairu is an example.

Another person in Qinjia Village is also an example.

Although Qin Huairu married into the city, her life was not easy.

She had a mean mother-in-law and a husband who died early, but she still lived a good life in the village.

Most people suffer physically, but very few suffer mentally.

There was also a girl in Qinjia Village who was anxious to get married because of her parents. But she ended up having a domestic violence husband and her life became miserable.

Finally, he jumped into a well and committed suicide. This scene is still vivid in Liu Xiaoxia's mind.

Xiaoxia understood one thing, but when she was not seriously ill, she felt very miserable.

So she won't force herself to get married.

Now she just wants her family to live a good life.

As for marriage? We'll talk about it later.

Seeing that Xiaoxia did not respond, Sister Su did not say anything else.

After all, this is someone's life event. If you interfere and something goes wrong, others will blame you for the rest of their lives!

The two went home together and only separated at the fork in the road.

Liu Xiaoxia and Sister Su waved and walked into the courtyard.

There are not many people in the courtyard. Xiaoxia heard from the three uncles in the courtyard yesterday that most people have returned to their hometowns. After all, it is time to rest in the countryside.

This is a good time to unite, otherwise they will be busy with farming and won’t have time to talk when they go back home.

Xiaoxia walked into the house, looked around subconsciously, and suddenly found a brand new sewing machine in the room!

She rubbed her eyes with her hands and found that it was not an illusion, so she trotted over happily, raised her hand and touched the sewing machine.

Although she had never used it, she had seen this thing at Li Xin's house.

With this thing, the efficiency of making and mending clothes will be several times higher!

Besides, it is labor-saving and eye-friendly. Among all the machines, the one Xiaoxia wanted to buy the most was a sewing machine.

I didn’t expect that Brother Ping An actually bought it back!

"Xia is back!"

Liu Ping'an walked out of the kitchen where he had just been preparing ingredients.

As soon as he came out, he saw Xiaoxia sitting at the sewing machine trying to operate it. He smiled and went back to the dormitory and took out seven dolls.

Xiaoxia originally heard her brother's voice and was about to respond.

She saw Liu Ping'an going straight back to the dormitory. She was still wondering when she saw Liu Ping'an taking out seven dolls.

Xiaoxia stood up happily and asked curiously, "Brother, where did you get these dolls?"

"As for me, I bought some rags and cotton and asked your sister Qin to make it. How is it? I designed this look, so it's not bad, right?"

Liu Ping'an placed the dolls on the table with some pride and waved his hand: "Pick one. I will go to the countryside in a few days to bring them back to Xiaoyan, Xiaoqiang and the other naughty kids, as well as the two younger brothers and sisters from my aunt's family."

Xiaoxia felt a little sad when she heard it was cotton.

Due to drought in the past two years, cotton production has dropped significantly, and it is almost impossible to buy it.

However, Xiaoxia felt happy when she thought that her younger brothers and sisters in her hometown would all get cute dolls.

She looked at the dolls on the table in embarrassment, not knowing what to choose.

Liu Ping'an smiled knowingly and went back to the kitchen to cook.

When Xiaoxia saw her brother was going to cook, she made up her mind and chose a rag doll with brighter colors.

These dolls, however, would be very crude in later times.

The eyes and nose are made of cloth, not as complex, beautiful and delicate as those in later generations.

But for children of this generation, this is the best playmate. They can hug the doll to sleep at night and tell it their own secrets.

It's something that many children want.

Xiaoxia chose the doll and gave it a name in her mind. Then she held it in her arms and felt extremely happy.

She happily put the doll in her bedroom and then skipped into the kitchen to help.

Sitting in front of the stove, Xiaoxia started to light the fire seriously.

She will never let down her current life and her parents' expectations.

She will never let down Brother Ping An who is so good to her.
