The history of raising children from the Republic of China to the 70s

"Why are you crying? Can crying solve any problems? You! It's really useless. By the way, Gao Changxue's money is in your hands, right?"

Hu's mother looked like she hated iron and steel. This daughter really didn't look like her at all. When she was in Li's house, she was beaten to death by her mother-in-law, and all the things she brought back were useless things. , and not much money.

In the end, it was even more useless to wait until Gao's house, almost Gao Chang learned to say what he said, and he didn't say to bring something back to see the two old ones after being married for so long.

This Gao Changxue also changed his face very badly. He was so enthusiastic before getting married, but after getting married, he ignored them. It was really annoying.But they didn't dare to make trouble with him. This man is so powerful that he can prevent them from seeing women, and he is not comparable to the previous Li Chengye.

They also regretted it very much afterwards. Although they got a dowry gift, the money won't be available for long, which can't be compared to having it for a long time.No, as soon as they heard that something had happened, they rushed over immediately without any delay.

Hu Xiuqin originally planned to send news to the Gao family, but was stopped by Hu's mother. If the Gao family came, many things would be difficult to handle.

Hu Xiuqin cried and shook her head. Gao Changxue usually buys the things at home, and he manages all his money. Hu Xiuqin has no money at all.However, Gao Changxue was very willing to give to her, so Hu Xiuqin didn't care about this matter, and he didn't know where Gao Changxue's money was.

"You, you, you, why are you so useless!" Mother Hu was really going to be pissed off by this girl.A woman can't even hold her husband's money.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, the money and everything must be at home, so look for it first." Hu's father interrupted Hu's mother's complaints, and ordered his sons and daughter-in-laws to act quickly.His son-in-law was an official before, and he must have a lot of money in his hands. If they find it, they will get rich.

Mother Hu thought about it too, and became anxious in her heart, "Yes, yes, hurry up, search everywhere, as long as it is valuable."

Hu Xiuqin stared blankly at her family members rummaging through the house, even forgot to shed tears.Her heart also became more and more desolate, she had never recognized the true face of these people more than now.The so-called good for her is just to make her give more willingly.And they just used her as a tool, something that could be sold for money, one time was not enough, there was a second time, maybe there would be a third time soon.

Hu's mother was flipping through the pages, and the chatter in her mouth never stopped, "Hey, do you still have contact with that kid Li Chengye? I heard that he is doing very well in the steel factory now, and he hasn't looked for it yet. Is it true?" I still miss you!"

"If you want me to say that kid must not have forgotten you, why don't you continue to be with him? You still have two children. This time, they have to pay some more gifts. They are rich now. I definitely don't care about one or two, it's better to ask him for two hundred..."

She was terrified and didn't know what to do.At this time, she will miss her ex-husband, Li Chengye very much. If possible, will they still have a chance.

It's a pity that she immediately gave up this idea in the next moment, how can she be worthy of him now, she also knows what happened before, the Li family and the Hu family have already torn their faces.

She couldn't escape her parents and brothers, and the Li family felt that they would no longer accept her.Even if the Li family still had the heart to let her go back, who would be willing to give such a large gift.What's more, she clearly knew that her ex-husband didn't have any deep feelings for her, and now he was even worse than Mo Shangren.

But what would happen to her if she didn't marry Li Chengye?Hu's father and Hu's mother will definitely find her a family, just to earn another dowry money.For the sake of money, they absolutely don't care who that person is.It may be a fool, or it may be disabled.For a moment, she really wanted to die just like that, and take the child in her belly with her.Maybe in the next life, she will be born into a happy family with a happy marriage.

Thinking of this, and looking at the Hu family who were full of greedy faces, Hu Xiuqin really couldn't stay here any longer.She walked out slowly, down the stairs, and walked aimlessly down the street with her hands on her stomach.She still doesn't want to kill the child in her stomach. Although Gao Changxue has many problems, it is undeniable that he is very good to her, very good.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law." A man grabbed Hu Xiuqin's sleeve. Hu Xiuqin was startled, and immediately shook off the man's hand.The movement was so big that she almost fell down by herself.

The man before helped him quickly, and then he let go of his hand as if he was afraid of being misunderstood.

"Sister-in-law, I'm Brother Gao, we met before, do you remember me?" Seeing her terrified look, the man hurriedly explained.

"You, I know you." Hu Xiuqin looked carefully for a while, and finally recognized the person.

"Sister-in-law, brother Gao asked me to come to you..."

……

Several days later, Li Chengye did have some worries about Hu Xiuqin. After all, they had two children, and they couldn't help but think that someone with a bad head might turn around.Hu Xiuqin didn't have any opinions, so she might have come to her because of what her parents told her. You must know that Li Chengye's current conditions can be said to be very good.If she wanted to marry again, she would definitely not have such good conditions. Besides, Li Chengye was not married yet.

"Hey, have you heard? Something big happened, Hu Xiuqin disappeared, and Gao Changxue disappeared too." That night Zhang Jun hurried to Li Chengye's house again.

"It's gone? Isn't Gao Changxue in the detention center?" Li Chengye was also shocked, and he stopped flipping the book in his hands.

"Hey, why don't I say something big happened. This Gao Changxue has a lot of skills. I don't know where he met some people. They stole him out. I heard that Hu Xiuqin disappeared before Gao Changxue escaped from prison." Zhang Jun I was also very emotional, I didn't expect this person to leave a lot of escape for me.Now that the news has spread throughout the county, they have never heard of anyone still escaping from prison.

Zhang Jun was also a little annoyed. Before, he thought that Gao Changxue would have no chance of turning the tables, so he didn't let anyone help him to watch him. He didn't expect such a mistake to happen now.

Li Chengye also finds it inconceivable that he needs a letter of introduction when he goes out now. In this situation, Gao Changxue can't stay anywhere. He can't go to the deep mountains and old forests. He doesn't think this person is so capable of being lonely. of.

"Where do you think he can go?"

Zhang Jun was also lost in thought, "They don't have a letter of introduction, so they can't stay anywhere in Huaguo, either they are going to places that are sparsely populated, or they are no longer in the country."

His last sentence was very small, and he looked around carefully, afraid that someone would hear him.

"Going abroad, how can it be possible to go abroad? There is no way to smuggle in, right?" Li Chengye only felt that he still knew too little.Unless the memory of the original owner is very deep, many others are vague.

Zhang Jun moved the chair he was sitting on a lot to Li Chengye's side, "You don't know that, Guangjiang Province is close to Hong Kong Island, although it is forbidden to travel between the two sides, but every year secretly A lot of people ran past."

"How can there be a boat across the river?"

"Hey, of course there are boats, but they are all black boats. A seat costs a lot of money, and they won't send people ashore. In the end, there is still a long way to go to swim by yourself. As long as you swim over and cross the blockade, you can become a Hong Kong Islander."

"However, more people don't have the money to take a boat, and they swim all the way, but not many people can actually go ashore, and more people die of exhaustion before they reach the place. Many people are buried in the water." Few people. Even so, there are countless people passing by every year."

Zhang Jun said this, the expression on his face was not very good-looking.

Li Chengye also felt very heavy in his heart, "Are there really so many people?"

Zhang Jun nodded, "That's right, it's just a little more. In the eyes of those people, Hong Kong Island is a paradise, and wealth is everywhere. As long as you pass by, you can get rich and live a good life."

If you want him to say how could it be so good there, no matter where there are few rich people, there are more people who can get rich than those who can't, and the most poor people in the world.

"Wealth is always concentrated in the hands of a few people. Even in developed countries, the poor still make up the majority. Country Y is like this. Can Hong Kong Island managed by country Y be better than country Y?" Li Chengye saw it very clearly Well, although Hong Kong Island looks more prosperous than the current Huaguo, if you want to get rich as soon as it passes by, it is just a dream.

"Yes, but I suspect that Gao Changxue must have a lot of capital in his hands. He was in the Revolutionary Committee and collected a lot of good things in private. I heard that there are priceless antiques in it."

"En." Li Chengye responded lightly. The best result now is that this person has left Huaguo and brought Hu Xiuqin with him. They won't have any entanglements in the future, and their family can live in peace.

"Are you sure they are going to Hong Kong Island?"

Zhang Jun nodded, "Probably so, I've already asked, and indeed someone saw a group of people like Gao Changye going to Guangjiang Province, and there was a pregnant woman among them, so it shouldn't be anyone else except Hu Xiuqin. "

"If you're still worried, I'll ask someone to inquire again. We have traveled the road to Guangjiang Province many times, and there must be many people who have seen them on the way." The reason why Zhang Jun dared to make such a guarantee was because the There are definitely not many people who are still running outside all the time.Coupled with a woman, it is even more eye-catching.

Li Chengye naturally didn't refuse, "That's troublesome." This couple is a big trouble, it's better to figure it out.

The heavy snow continued until years ago. Zhang Jun said that he wanted to inquire, but it must not be possible to inquire these days. Li Chengye still did not hear from Zhang Jun until New Year's Eve.But Li Chengye was not in a hurry, Zhang Jun didn't dare to show up here anymore.

This year was a rare time for Li Chengye to celebrate the New Year at home, so Mother Li attached great importance to it and got up early in the morning.A fire was lit in the main room, and a large pot full of grapefruit leaf water was burned, who wanted to get rid of bad luck on New Year's Eve and bless the coming year with safety and health.

So Li Chengye and his two children got up very early, and took a bath by the fire early in the morning.

After taking a bath, Li Chengye took his two children to post the couplets. He wrote the couplets on red paper himself, which is very good.Zhang Jun saw it before, and asked Li Chengye to help write a few copies, saying that his family wanted one, his parents' family wanted one, and his mother-in-law's family also wanted one.

Li Chengye thought he would write more copies if he wanted to, so he casually gave a few copies to Hu Liren.Li Chengye's handwriting is really good, and the couplets written are even better than those sold in department stores.If it weren't for being unable to do business now, Hu Liren would have coaxed Li Chengye to write couplets to make money.

Li's mother was busy in the kitchen. Although there were only four people in the family, she was going to cook eight characters, and they were all good dishes. Naturally, it took a lot of effort.

Li Chengye and the others quickly posted the couplets. Although they couldn't help in the kitchen, they found something to do and started cleaning with the two little ones.The cobwebs and dust on the corners of the beams and walls had to be swept off. In order to prevent their bodies from getting dirty, they all wore old clothes and hats.

Busy all morning, it happened to be eleven o'clock in the morning when Mother Li called for dinner. They don't pay attention to eating at twelve o'clock on New Year's Eve. good.

"Hurry up, let's set off firecrackers outside." Seeing that the dishes on the table were almost ready, Li Chengye called the two children and ran out to the yard.Although superstition is opposed now, firecrackers can still be bought.But in this day and age, whips are usually set off only for weddings, and there are not many people who actually set off whips during the Chinese New Year.The most is to buy some kicks for the children or something, but there are still people releasing them in the county, and there are already several stores not far away for a while.

"Ah, set off firecrackers, set off firecrackers." Xiaobei was very excited when he heard that firecrackers were going to be set off, and ran out rattling.

"Xiaobei, slow down, it's snowing outside, and I accidentally fell down." Seeing his excited little appearance, Li Chengye also shook his head helplessly, this kid is really impatient.

Thinking about it, he looked at Xiao Xi, who was walking at a leisurely pace, hey, the twins have very different personalities.

"Father?" Sensing Li Chengye's gaze, Xiao Xi had some doubts in his eyes.

"It's okay, let's go there quickly." After touching the child's head, Li Chengye took him by the hand and led him out.Although the snow had stopped outside, there was still a thick layer of snow on the ground, and the branches were covered with white patches.
