life struggle

Days of continuous rain disrupted the growth of crops.

Wu Pingshun watched helplessly as other people's houses were busy harvesting crops, while his own corn was still standing upright in the ground, circling anxiously, cursing at the crops.

Four or five team members in the township, Wu Fachen, the village party secretary, and Ma Deyin, the accountant, squatted on the side of the road and chatted. The leader of the team was Luo Mingchao, the deputy head of Baocun. Standing up to meet him, he smiled at him, "Brother Pingshun, you are one of the few confiscated in our village. The season for planting wheat has passed, and the county and township are pressing you hard. Don't wait any longer. Hurry up and collect it." !"

Wu Pingshun looked up at him, and said hesitantly, "Xiao Luo! You have urged me four or five times, and I am more anxious than you. I am so distressed that I will destroy the grown corn. I can't bear to do it!"

Village head Luo took out a cigarette and handed it to Wu Pingshun, lit it for him, and said in embarrassment, "Brother, if you don't accept it for a day, it's not easy for brothers to go up. Listen to my advice, don't wait any longer, just accept it. Delaying the wheat planting will result in even greater losses.”

Wu Pingshun sighed and said, "Xiao Luo, I know it's difficult for you, and I didn't intend to make it difficult for you. I don't want to wait, there's no way, it's hard to walk on the wet ground, let alone pull a shelf cart to transport crops. Once cut Corn, I can’t transport it home by myself, and I’m afraid of sprouting in the ground, so I can’t sleep for a few days because of worry.”

Wu Fachen said, "Pingshun! I'm not talking about you. You and Gousheng are the only two in our village who are over [-]. Why do you plant so much land? The old couple are tired day and night. Hehe, I just can't think about it. In my opinion, you keep two acres for yourself, and the rest will be given to the two brothers. They are young, have a lot of people, and have little land, so it is convenient to plant them. You old couple can also relax .”

Wu Pingshun said with a wry smile, "Uncle Fachen, I want to do this, but the conditions don't allow it. It's not that you don't know the situation in my family. Xiaojun is still in school, and there is no grass growing. I can neither do business nor go out like a young man. As a part-time job, don’t you just rely on planting these few acres of land for him to complete his studies! I gave them all, so what should I do if I serve in the army, I’m afraid I won’t even be able to drink the northwest wind, so why don’t I just pack up and come back in advance.”

Head Luo nodded and said with a heavy heart, "Brother, I also went to school in the countryside. It's really not easy for you, and I understand you very well. However, going to school in the army is only temporary. You let his brothers and sisters I don't think it would be difficult to give some for him to complete his studies, so why bother to hold on so hard and suffer yourself!"

Wu Pingshun sighed, and said with a sad face, "Xiao Luo, you don't know the situation of my family. As for the two sons in my family, one is more rascal than the other. Apart from thinking about the few acres of land, I want them to give up a lot of money." Dividing money is harder than cutting their flesh. Think about it, even I never pay attention to it, let alone brothers! Let alone asking them to pay, they are not even willing to spend their strength. If I make trouble and cause trouble, I just want to burn incense!"

Mayor Luo asked in surprise, "Brother, what you said is too mysterious, they wouldn't be so inhumane!"

Wu Pingshun smoked with his head down, without saying a word.

Wu Fachen said, "Major, you haven't been in the village for long, and you don't know much about the situation in the village. Pingshun is right. To be honest, the whole village feels sorry for him and the dog. A filial, often noisy. Ping Shun is also a person with a strange temper. He never bows his head in front of the children, let alone take the initiative to beg the children. This is a housework, and everyone can only worry about them behind their backs. Say something!"

Head Luo pondered for a while, then said thoughtfully, "Brother, don't worry, it doesn't matter, as long as you agree to chop the corn, I will find a way, even if it is to carry it, I will send it all to your home. Guarantee that none of them will be left, and the particles will be returned to the warehouse, what do you think?"

Wu Pingshun stood up excitedly, waved his hands again and again and said, "Xiao Luo, you can't help it, you can't help it, you are all busy, don't bother you, let me fix it myself!"

Village head Luo said very seriously, "Brother, it's okay, our job during this time is to help you special families with autumn harvest, don't have any thoughts." Before Wu Pingshun could speak, he turned around and shouted, "Xiao Sun, come over!"

"Major, what instructions do you have?"

"You and Secretary Fachen go to his house now, make a phone call to the village, and transfer five people to me, and start helping Brother Pingshun harvest corn in the afternoon."

Wu Pingshun quickly stopped and said, "Xiao Luo, don't do this, don't do this!"

Wu Fachen also said, "Major, I think it's better to forget it. This will not have a good impact on Xiaofu and Xiaoqi brothers. Don't make things difficult at that time."

Mayor Luo is a quick-tempered person, and he can't tolerate people who swear at others, disrespect or support their parents, so he glared, "Fachen, don't say anything, I'll take care of this matter, who thinks I'm It's ugly, whoever dares to trouble my brother, let him come to me directly, I don't believe in this evil."

Wu Fachen said, "The head of the village, that's how it is. In the past, when his two daughters and sisters came to help him harvest the crops, they were either beaten or scolded by Mifu. As a result, the work was not done, and instead they made a lot of money."

Head Luo waved his hand, "Fachen, you don't need to say anything, it's settled."

The head of Luo Township led more than a dozen village cadres, and worked for nearly three days in a row. Finally, he broke off all the corn in Wu Pingshun's house, marked it on the wheels of the rack with a fork, and pushed and pulled along the muddy country road like ants. Just like moving, send it home.Then all the corn stalks were cut off and piled up on the ground so that the wetland could be dried and cultivated early.

Seeing Mayor Luo holding his trouser legs and leading the township cadres to help his family harvest crops sincerely, Wu Pingshun and his wife were very grateful, and Mrs. Xiao Jun burst into tears and knelt down to Mayor Luo with a "plop" in front of everyone. Come down, "The head of the township, I have caused you so much trouble and made you suffer. You are a good head of the township, a hundred times better than my two damned sons. You have made my old couple grateful to you for a lifetime. "

Mayor Luo hurriedly stepped forward to help Mrs. Xiaojun, "Sister-in-law, we are all aware of your family's situation. It is absolutely right to do something for you. You don't need to thank us for anything. If you have any difficulties in the future, just talk to Secretary Fachen or Go to the village and tell me, what can be done will be done for you!"

The township cadres helped Wu Pingshun harvest the crops, and all the men, women, and children in the village saw it. Some people commented, "Pingshun and his wife are too difficult, just because of his strange temper and face-saving people. He will not let the villagers work for him."

"They are a big family, and each of them is a few feet tall. Not to mention their own parents, even if they encounter difficulties on the road, they should reach out to help others. Look at his two children's family. Watching the old man and his wife making troubles but being indifferent, it is really inhumane, it is like a pig and a dog."

"Following them is to make things difficult for Ping Shun and Ping Shun on purpose. When they are in a hurry, they will naturally come to them and give up the land to them."

"Obviously, as soon as the equivalent army graduates, he and Xiaosen both have jobs, who needs a few acres of broken land, not both of them. I just can't figure out what kind of medicine his brothers took wrong , I have to be in a hurry to get awkward with Lao Tzu, and try to find a way to get the land."

"Looking at Pingshun, I'm jealous of food!"

"The intentions are not right, they are all bad things with no brains and no conscience! This is good, I am ashamed and thrown to the village. If I imitate Fuhe, I will be ashamed to see others, and I can't wait to find a crack in the ground immediately."

………………

Everyone talked nonsense in private, talking a lot, Xiaoqi didn't take it seriously when he heard it, whoever did it, I wouldn't do it anyway.Xiaofu's face was indeed a bit uneasy, and when he returned home, he yelled at Qiao Na, "It's you who is holding back and coming up with bad ideas, you go out and listen, people in the village are talking about us, why do you have the face to go out?" To see people."

Qiao Na glared at her, and said viciously, "You are a wimp, you have no ability to get the land back from the old man, and you are angry at me. This is a good thing that I did, and I did it on purpose for his precious son. Our embarrassment is not just to let everyone know that we are not filial to him, and we spread our shame. In the future, our son will not be able to marry a daughter-in-law, and no one will want a girl! You don’t want him to be at ease. Talking about things, but pushing everything on me, you are a pig brain!"

Wu Xiaofu suddenly felt that Qiao Na was right, and came out of the house cursing. Seeing Wu Pingshun cleaning up the remaining corn stalks in the field, he walked over angrily, and said, "I asked you if you are still my father. Is there a father like you?" Well, people who are fathers are always protecting their children. You are good. It’s not good to make me ashamed by publicizing me in relatives, friends and villages. What kind of bullshit are you doing. I think you are so confused that you don’t talk about anything and don’t care about anything.”

Wu Pingshun got angry when he heard it, picked up the hoe in his hand and threw it at Wu Xiaofu, and said angrily, "You, a person who should have been buried alive a long time ago, still have the face to talk to me about shame. Apart from being angry, have you ever done a good thing? I won’t tell you who. I’m just confused. Not only will I sue you to the township, but I’ll go to the court to sue you. If you have the ability, you can sue now I'll kill it, as long as I have breath, I will never let you bastards ride on my neck and shit." Said and came towards Wu Xiaofu.

Wu Xiaofu said perseveringly while hiding, "You have been possessed for a long time, except for Wu Pingchun and Xiaojun who have no good ideas, in your eyes, there is not a single good product in the others, they are all cowards. Just face them, there will always be a day when it falls into my hands, and you will feel better then!"

Wu Ping blushed angrily and had a thick neck, and cursed, "I've long been disheartened by you, I've done evil in my previous life and raised two beasts, without a son like you, even if I go out to beg for food in the future, I won't beat you and me Let’s take a sip of your water.”

Wu Xiaofu stomped his feet and said, "Don't be stubborn now, you will regret it in the future." After finishing speaking, he strode away resentfully.
