This is a farming novel set in an older era, full of warm family everyday life.
Just how unlucky was Fu Bao'er in her previous life? As the only Carp Immortal in a thousand years to leap ...
Spring goes and autumn comes, the four seasons rotate year after year.
In 1966, when the first snow fell in Qingshan Village, Fu Baoer was standing upright in the photo studio, taking a family photo.
Jiang Fengxia and Fu Manshan sat in the middle, with their three granddaughters on either side, and Fu Xiuzhi and Shen Qiaosheng standing behind them.
This was their first time taking photos, and their nervousness was palpable.
Fubaoer is six years old now and has grown a lot taller. She still has some baby fat on her oval face, and her eyes are big and bright. Her mischievous look made the staff at the photo studio call her cute, and they took a photo of her for free.
After taking the photos, Shen Qiaosheng sent them back to the village and said goodbye to everyone.
He is going back to the capital to celebrate the New Year.
Fu Baoer waved goodbye to Shen Qiaosheng, who was about to become her uncle-in-law. After more than three years, her aunt finally agreed to marry him!
After the Chinese New Year, I will come to pick up my aunt to go to the capital to meet our elders.
Fu Xiuzhi watched Shen Qiaosheng leave. Somehow, she felt a little panicked, as if she wouldn't be able to see him for a long time.
Zhao Zhao, now 11 years old, is a junior high school student. She has gradually grown into a cheerful and bright girl, and there is no trace of her timid and inferior childhood anymore.
"Aunt, are you reluctant to leave my uncle? Hahaha..." Zhao Zhao joked.
Fu Xiuzhi blushed and put away her chaotic thoughts. Perhaps it was because they wouldn't be able to see each other for a while, and her longing was playing tricks on her.
"Let's go, let's go home!" Fu Xiuzhi took the lead and walked forward. "What do you want to eat today? I'll make it for you."
Fu Baoer raised her right hand and said, "Aunt, I want to eat sweet and sour spareribs and pearl meatballs."
"No problem," Fu Xiuzhi said. "It's Chinese New Year, tell me what you want to eat, or it will be too late!"
Several people walked home happily hand in hand. When they passed by the old house of the Fu family, they heard a noise coming from inside.
Everyone looked at each other, and Fu Baoer was the first to react: "It seems that Li Ying is back."
There was a moment of silence. Was this forgotten man finally released from prison?
It's a joke. Li Chengjun and Li Ying should have been released in 1963 and 1965 respectively. However, because one got into a fight on a farm and the other stole something in prison, their sentences were extended.
Perhaps Fu Tianming didn't expect his wife to come back suddenly today.
The real wife and the fake wife came into direct confrontation.
In the old house, Fu Tianming squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, not saying a word. This young man, who was in his prime and should have been full of energy, had no love for life on his face.
Li Ying sat on the ground, crying loudly. Several years in prison had made her skinny and her face was a sickly yellow. She looked more than ten years older than Fu Tianming and Zhou Xueyan.
Zhou Xueyan looked at Li Ying with disdain and didn't take her seriously at all.
"I say, elder sister, you still have the nerve to come back! What a ruin you have done to such a good family? Look at Tianming and Chengcai, if I hadn't come, how would they live?" Zhou Xueyan wiped her tears with her sleeves hypocritically. She came back just in time and quickly got a divorce.
Li Ying's temper had long been worn out in prison. When she heard Zhou Xueyan's provocative words, she felt angry and anxious, but when she opened her mouth, she didn't know how to respond.
"...Fu Tianming, you...are you worthy of me?!" After holding it in for a long while, Li Yingcai roared and questioned.
Fu Tianming felt mixed emotions. Seeing Li Ying like this, he was filled with sadness. But at that time, he really couldn't survive without a woman in the family. It was too tiring, too tiring.
"I'm sorry for you," Fu Tianming said in a muffled voice, "Now that you're back, just live a good life."
When these words were spoken, not only Li Ying was stunned, but also the confident Zhou Xueyan.
"What? What should I do? You live a good life with her, but what should I do? What about Da Niu and Jiefang?!" Zhou Xueyan's voice became louder and louder, and more and more sharp.
Fu Tianming's mind was in a mess. He waved his hands irritably, "Whatever you want. If you want to leave, go. If you don't want to leave, stay. I've already lost face in the village. This one thing doesn't matter. Whatever you want!"
Fubaoer, Zhaozhao Panpan and Heiwa were lying under the window and were stunned when they heard this.
What do you mean by "stay if you don't want to leave"? The three of us will live together?
It's really explosive!
Fu Baoer raised her thumbs up. This was a very shameful thing to do in their time!
The three people in the room were silent for a while. Zhou Xueyan's face was so gloomy that it looked like water could drip out of it. "Fu Tianming! I've been working like a slave for you at home for the past few years, taking care of you and the children. You said that when this woman comes back, you'll divorce her and marry me!"
Li Ying was overwhelmed with grief and hurriedly hugged her husband's legs tightly, "His father, you can't divorce me! If I didn't want to make life easier for our family, I wouldn't have done such a thing as selling my child! Have you forgotten? We used to have such a good relationship!"
Fu Tianming couldn't bear to leave any of them behind. "Stop talking! I'll just leave!"
As he said that, he pushed the door open and walked out.
Fu Baoer and his companions didn't have time to hide and were caught red-handed.
"......" Fu Tianming was startled, "Why are you here!"
Li Ying and Zhou Xueyan followed Fu Tianming out and saw three girls and a dog standing in the yard.
The impression Heiwa left on Li Ying was so deep that it was engraved in her soul, causing her to involuntarily take a few steps back.
"It's you, eavesdropping on the adults' conversation, right?" Zhou Xueyan said sarcastically, "Even though you've been to school, you still don't have much manners!"
There are three children in the family, and Fu Tianming does not agree to let Chengcai stay at home. They cannot afford to send three children to school, so they can only sacrifice her daughter Sun Da Niu.
Li Ying looked at the three girls and noticed Fu Baoer at first sight.
She had never seen such a beautiful child. Standing there, she seemed to be glowing, attracting everyone's attention.
And Zhaodi and Pandi, are they still her children? They have become completely unrecognizable, clean and neat, and handsome. Although not as eye-catching as Fu Baoer, they are also outstanding.
Look at her adulthood, thin, weak, and timid, which is completely different from her.
It seems that her daughters are living a good life.
Li Ying felt unbalanced again.
But thinking about her own situation, Chengcai was not close to her and was even resistant to her. Instead, he was very close to the woman who had usurped her position. Her husband also had two minds. She had no one to rely on here, so it would be better for her to win over these girls.
Now that the child is older, she should be able to understand her mother's difficulties.
"Son! My son!" Li Ying really wanted to cry, tears streaming down her face. "I miss you so much! Come on, let me see how you've been doing these years."
