happy life rebirth

Chapter 2

Xia Xiaohong looked at her mother Jiang Meiying in shock, she still remembers it very clearly...

Xia Xiaohong’s hometown is a small village called Hewanli. Although Hewanli is only a small village; but in the 80s, it was still a relatively affluent place. The geographical location of Hewanli is not bad; surrounded by mountains on three sides Facing the water, Xia Xiaohong clearly remembers in the village from the time she had memories—there was a loess road in the village that directly leads to Anjiang Town, a small county that is very close to the river bay!On the other end, you can reach a small city that is also very close to the river bend——Hongjiang City!

Not only that, Hewanli Village also happens to be the place where the township government is set up in Hewanli; there is also a market every four days, which is the so-called market.

Going to the market is a kind of folk custom, also known as "driving the mountain"; the market refers to the form of commodity trading activities that are gathered regularly, and mainly refers to a form of trade organization left over from the era or region where the commodity economy was underdeveloped; and Called the market.

The early 80s coincided with the urban economic reform, and Xia Xiaohong's father had a more flexible mind; he started a business in the form of discharge early on.

Discharging refers to a way of transporting wood through water, that is, weaving the wood into row knots with rattan, cable, steel cable, iron chain and other rigging; The joints are connected vertically and horizontally to form a wooden raft; the natural manipulation of the water flow makes it float down the river for timber transportation, which is generally used in unobstructed rivers; the form of wooden rafts includes single-layer, multi-layer and wooden bundles, and its size depends on The width and depth of the river vary.

Long ago, Xia Xiaohong's home became the only household with ten thousand yuan in Hewanli Village.

You must know that the 80s cannot be compared with the present at all. The million-dollar households in that era were very valuable; unlike 30 years later... people all over the street are worth millions or tens of millions. Wanli Village is a place full of wooden houses; the first brick house in Hewanli Village has been repaired, and it is still a small western-style building in other people's population.

But happiness did not really come to this newly rich peasant family, just like many people; Xia Xiaohong's father, Xia Tiecheng, once again confirmed an old saying that has been passed down for thousands of years.

As the old saying goes, when a man has money, he becomes bad; many men will abandon their wretched wives after they get promoted and get rich. Xia Tiecheng also committed this common problem that most men will make.

The family has money, and the small foreign building has been repaired; Xia Tiecheng's heart began to swell, and he felt that his wife who had been with him for more than ten years was getting old; he was not as good-looking as many young girls in the city, so... in his pocket... After getting some money, Xia Tiecheng began to focus on the young girls outside.

Not long after Xia Xiaohong’s small foreign-style building was actually completed, Xia Tiecheng filed for divorce from Jiang Meiying. At that time, almost no one would divorce, let alone in the countryside. At the beginning, Jiang Meiying refused to agree to divorce, but she couldn’t stand Xia Tiecheng played with him unreasonably every day.

Jiang Meiying was very disappointed, and she asked herself if she had any regrets about Xia Tiecheng; Jiang Meiying really didn't understand why a good family would come to this point; facing her wife's doubts, Xia Tiecheng only said one word to Jiang Meiying; Divorce is okay!If you give birth to another son to my old Xia family, then our marriage will not be divorced and we will live together.

Hearing Xia Tiecheng's words, Jiang Meiying's hopeful heart finally turned cold; she stopped eating completely.

When Jiang Meiying gave birth to Xia Xiaohong, she accidentally injured her body; because the medical level was not very developed at that time, and Hewanli Village was only a small village, the delay took a long time; I can't give birth anymore.

In the 80s, family planning was not as strict as it was later, especially in rural areas; basically every household had two to three children, and many families had a boy and a girl; some had two sons, and at least they would There are two daughters; it is really rare for a family like Xia Xiaohong to have only one girl. In terms of the whole Hewanli Village, only her family is like this.

It is precisely this point that although Xia Tiecheng has earned a lot of money, he still feels that he cannot hold his head up in this river bend village.

Having no children is a very important thing for many men. Xia Xiaohong remembers that even after 30 or 80 years, children are very important to many families, let alone in the [-]s.

Although Xia Xiaohong could understand her father's desire for a son, but she did not agree with it; since she wanted a son so much, why didn't she make it clear to her mother earlier; Open your mouth.

Human nature is such hypocrisy. It is obvious that I have changed my mind; but I still have to find an excuse for my change of heart. A man who has changed his mind cannot be pulled back even if he is ten cows; no matter how hard Jiang Meiying pleads, In the end, the two ended up in divorce.

But... Xia Tiecheng didn't know whether it was out of guilt, or because he was eager to get rid of Jiang Meiying and Xia Xiaohong's mother and daughter; when Xia Tiecheng divorced, he didn't want anything, not the newly built small foreign building; neither did his daughter Xia Xiaohong, uh...of course Money is still not that stupid, don't want money - how is it possible?

After the divorce, Xia Tiecheng also left; Jiang Meiying and Xia Xiaohong's mother and daughter who were abandoned by him suddenly became a joke in Hewanli Village.

It has been said that rumors can kill a person. Originally, Jiang Meiying's house made a lot of people jealous because of the house repairs; now... how big is Hewanli Village, and a little thing can cause troubles in the streets and alleys. Wen; not to mention such a big issue as divorce. It didn't take long for the news of Jiang Meiying's divorce from Xia Tiecheng to spread.

It was also because of this that Jiang Meiying became seriously ill shortly after divorcing Xia Tiecheng; after recovering from her illness, Jiang Meiying's health became worse and worse, and Xia Xiaohong clearly remembered... her own mother left after less than two years; And of course he became an orphan.

Even though Xia Tiecheng approached Xia Xiaohong after Jiang Meiying's death, and wanted to take her away; but he was driven out with a broom by the other party. In Xia Xiaohong's heart, she always insisted that her mother was killed by her father. .

If it wasn't for Xia Tiecheng not to want her mother and daughter, mother would not be sick... If she doesn't get sick, she won't die. This idea has been deeply rooted in Xia Xiaohong's heart for decades; it also led to Xia Xiaohong's relationship with Xia Tiecheng before her rebirth. The relationship between father and daughter is like a stranger.
