1956, in order to actively respond to the call of the state and subsidize the family, Jane, who was only 14 years old, became the captain of the militia and participated in the task of repairing local railways. Carrying a large basket of sand on a pole and running back and forth on the railway every day has become the daily life of Jane, who is 0/4 years old. Here, she also met Lao Liu, the man who accompanied her all her life.
Lao Liu is a simple and honest man. Because the railway construction needs a lot of stones, Jane went to a place on the railway to provide stones, where she saw Lao Liu squatting on the ground and beating a big stone. At that time, Liu was an honest man and didn't talk much. Jane always rubbed her hands shyly when talking to him. From that day on, the couple never looked away from each other.
1962, Jane and Lao Liu got married. Jane's father was the landlord's bookkeeper before liberation. So, in those days, Jane got married very successfully. Jane took a brand-new red quilt, two bags of rice and three bags of corn flour, and wore a beaming red cotton-padded jacket. /kloc-in the winter of 0/962, she married Liu, who was penniless. At that time, Jane wanted Liu to go out to work, so she stayed at home to do housework. But Liu couldn't stand it. She is worried that Jane will be bullied by her neighbors when she is alone at home after going out to work. So Liu Ye quit his job on the railway and stayed at home to farm with Jane.
1963, the 1 child of Liu and Jane was born, and it was a girl. Unfortunately, during the three-year difficult period, Jane's dowry was sold out to subsidize her family. The child has no food to eat, and Jane has no milk to drink because of malnutrition. The child starved to death one month after birth. That's Jane's 1 child. Jane is in pain.
1964, when Jane was 22 years old, her second child was born, a boy. Jane did everything she could to raise the child. She went up the mountain to dig roots and find wild vegetables to make up her body. Lao Liu also saves the food on the brigade every day and gives it to Jane. Finally, Jane has milk and can feed the children. This is actually Jane's 1 child.
1965, Jane's third child was born, also a girl. Jane thinks she has a man and a woman, so she can be considered as children. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. When the child was one month old, he died of sudden illness. For Jane, this is another bolt from the blue. Jane has an idea that she may never have a girl's life in her life. On the night when the child left, Lao Liu quietly held the child in her arms and went to the mountain to bury it. He sat in front of a small earthen bag and looked at the moon in the distance, and his tears could not help flowing downwards. That's his baby. It's only one month old and it's gone. As soon as I turned my head, I thought that there was a son and his own woman waiting to support himself at home. Lao Liu dried his tears and walked home slowly with his hands behind his back. His shadow is very long on the country road. His back seems to bend slowly. Liu secretly made up his mind that he must support every child in the future and make every child successful.
1966, Jane's fourth child was born, a boy. At this time, Jane was 24 years old. When the child was two years old, that is, 1968, the Cultural Revolution was in full swing in China. Because Jane's parents worked in the landlord's house before liberation, his parents were severely criticized so as not to affect themselves. Although I know that my parents are locked in a dark room and suffering from all kinds of inhuman criminal laws, Jane can't save them, and one person's strength can't change anything. In that big social background, Jane is just an unknown ordinary rural woman who has worked hard for her husband and children all her life. After being criticized for one year, Jane's parents both died, leaving seven children. Jane is the oldest. She has to take care of not only her family, but also her two unmarried sisters. Jane's burden is heavier. But fortunately, Jane's fourth child survived.
During the period of 1969, after the most difficult three years, Jane's life gradually improved and her two sisters got married. He also gave birth to a child this year, a boy. Jane gradually accepted the idea that she might never have a girl life in her life. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. 197 1 year, Jane's fifth child got sick at the age of three and disappeared. Jane is ill. The pain of losing a child three times in a row made Jane miserable. Lao Liu didn't cry, nor did he show any signs of decadence in front of Jane. Instead, on the night when the child left, he silently went to the back hill and buried the child next to the last child who left. Life goes on. Jane can't stay decadent because of this. She also has her husband and two sons, and then she is waiting for them to raise her. Liu Ye, on the other hand, works harder and harder, just to earn more work points, feed them and support their children.
1972 Old Six was born. It is a boy. The boss is a big boy now. When the couple went out to work, they handed over the task of taking care of the second and third children to the boss. It is said that the children of poor families are in charge early. Isn't it the same with Jane's children? Working in the fields day after day, working hard day after day, just to earn enough work points, to make this family last, to make your life last, just like countless couples in China's time. Jane and Lao Liu are just some of them.
1973, Old Seven was born as a boy. Although Jane always wanted a girl in her heart, Jane tried her best to teach her four children to be upward and kind.
1975, Lao Ba was born, and this time it was finally a girl. The couple and their four sons who are still alive regard this girl as a treasure. In China's time, it was a common idea to prefer sons to daughters, but both Liu and Jane only wanted to have a girl. I really thought I finally got what I wanted.
When the girl was two years old, Laojiu was born in 1977. At this time, she was still a boy. Jane and Liu thought about it, and they decided not to have any more children. They have men and women, and they think it's enough to raise these children well in this life.
1980, the only girl suddenly became seriously ill. She has been running a fever, and going to the hospital can't save her. It burned for three days in a row, and their only girl was gone. This time, Jane couldn't even shed tears. She thinks she may be the only boy in her life.
At that time, it was an honor to have five boys, and Jane became famous among her neighbors because of it. Jane never regards this as her own glory. Only he knows in his heart that the girl is actually his own glory, but it is never enough. Jane and Liu often leave meals for the children because they are hungry. In that era when illiteracy was widespread, Jane and Lao Liu were very strict in educating their children and were not allowed to swear. If they do, they will slap them in the face, and then punish them for not eating, fighting with others and skipping class for one day. Although their families are surrounded, Jane and Lao Liu insist on providing five children with opportunities to go to school.
One day, when Jane came back from work, she found that her cupboard door was broken. I didn't know it was the third child's stomach until I asked. She is so hungry that she can't even shake the door frame. The next-door neighbor also bothered Jane. It turns out that Lao Si stole the neighbor's meat. Jane, take out the rest of the money at home, throw away the meat from the neighbor's house, let the fourth kneel in the living room, kneel all night, beat the third, and send the third back to sleep. In the middle of the night, Jane asked Lao Si if he knew what was going on. Lao Si said not to steal other people's meat. Jane said, yes, yes, you can tell your mother when you are hungry, but don't steal anything or lose our house.
As the days passed, the children grew up. The youngest child 17 years old. One day, Jane was working in the field. Suddenly someone called her and said something had happened at home. I'm really scared. I hurried home at once and waited for her at home. That's Liu's cold body. Lao Liu left them at the age of 56.
The year is 1997, and Jane is 54 years old. The eldest and the second are married, have their own children outside, and live a very comfortable life. The third child became a cook and got married. Old four is a people's teacher, leading the national salary as an iron rice bowl. Jane thought, just wait for her youngest son to get married, so that she can go down with Liu and face the ancestors of the Liu family. But wait, the youngest son waited for 20 years and didn't get married. Until he was 37, he finally married a second married woman. Jane thought, nothing, just get married.
It's good to have it. Jane has a good relationship with her five daughters-in-law. How many children does she have? She says she has five sons and five daughters. Finally, on 20 12, Jane's youngest child became a father.
