In the vast and surging sea water, Tian Mi, with her long seaweed-like hair spread out, was flying freely and happily.
She likes water, as if...it's an ability engraved in her genes. As long as she is in the water, she will feel particularly happy.
Especially this time, I went there just for fun, and I felt more comfortable without any pressure.
Lai Tian Mi planned to take her father, sisters and brothers with her to Tianjin for a three or two hour drive during the National Day holiday.
Unexpectedly, the men who used to be very busy every year are now free this year and have expressed their desire to come along.
So, early in the morning of October 1st, everyone came except General Lou Zhan, whose identity was too special.
With the whole family, we drove seven or eight cars.
When we arrived at the beach, everyone started to divide the work in a lively manner.
One group of people accompanied the children in building castles and picking up shells, while another group of people prepared the barbecue grill for lunch.
And Tian Mi is naturally responsible for catching seafood.
If she wasn't afraid of worrying her family, she would have swam in the sea for half a day.
But even so, more than an hour had passed by the time she emerged from the water carrying two large sacks of seafood.
Lou Luhui, who had been waiting here, walked forward quickly. He bent down and smoothed the wet hair off his wife's face before taking the bag from her hand: "Don't come up yet. Wait for me to bring the towel and clothes."
The temperature in early October is not that cold, but it is autumn after all, and it is easy to catch a cold if you act rashly.
Tian Mi obediently hid in the water, with only her head above the water. She raised her hand to smooth the water stains that slid down her face, and shouted at the man's back: "There are a lot of crabs, abalones, and octopuses in the bag, but there are so many of us, will these be enough for us to eat?"
Especially crabs. Although autumn crabs are plump, they are not very filling.
To be honest, since returning to Beijing, they have rarely had the opportunity to eat such fresh seafood.
Although it is rare to have a barbecue at the beach, the sisters still prepared a lot of meat and various vegetables.
But...how can these foods compare to the taste of seafood freshly caught from the sea.
Sure enough, Lou Luhui heard his wife's words, shook the measure in his hand, and counted the number of people who came this time in his mind, and then turned around and affirmed: "Not enough."
Tian Mi curved her beautiful eyebrows and said, "Then you take the seafood to my brother-in-law and the others to deal with it. Bring back the empty sacks, and I'll go down and get two more bags."
So, when Tian Mi came out from the bottom of the sea, he washed himself clean with the clean water that he had prepared in advance.
After changing clothes, it was already 11 o'clock in the morning and the aroma from the barbecue grill was already filling the air.
Even the bizarre castles built by the children were of considerable size.
After looking around, Tian Mi first approached her elder sister Tian Yu, and curiously looked at the stove she had built temporarily.
There was seafood soup simmering in the pot, and it was so rich that she couldn't resist it: "It smells so good, sister, how long will it take before I can drink it?"
Tian Yu said cheerfully: "If you are hungry, go eat some biscuits first. The soup still needs to stew for a while. By the way, I heard from my dad that Chunxiu sent you a letter again? What did she say?"
Chunxiu is the girl from her aunt's family. She had some conflicts with Tian Mi when they were young.
However, when she was forced by Liu Xiangdong to not dare to go home, the girl also reminded herself in disguise.
Therefore, in Tian Mi's opinion, the jealousy between the two was at most the childish jealousy of little girls, and it could not be considered a deep hatred.
Later, Tian Mi went to the island to get married, and she married the educated youth Sun Jun whom she had been thinking about.
Afterwards, the two lost contact, and their relationship was never very good.
It was not until the year her grandparents passed away that she met Chunxiu again.
Chunxiu was not having a good time, and Tian Mi could tell at a glance.
Perhaps out of kindness, or perhaps because she was a woman, Tian Mi, who never liked to meddle in other people's affairs, spoke more and told her to read more books.
In Tian Mi's opinion, it was just a matter of a few words and didn't require any cost.
Maybe the other party wouldn't listen at all, so she quickly forgot about it.
Later, around the end of 1976, she heard that her educated youth boyfriend Sun Jun went home to visit his family and never came back. Not only did the man abandon his wife, he also ignored his two sons.
In fact, this situation is not uncommon, especially after the resumption of the college entrance examination, it is the sadness of the times.
At that time, her father Tian Hongxing had not retired yet. He felt that it was hard for his niece to raise two sons as a woman. When her aunt came to him for help, he thought about finding her a job, even if it was just a temporary one.
Unexpectedly, Chunyan refused herself. She said she didn't want to and she didn't have the face to trouble her uncle.
In her opinion, everyone said that Sun Jun was a bad person back then, but she was the one who insisted on marrying him, so she deserved the bitter consequences that Ruo had to endure.
Moreover, she kept thinking about her cousin Tian Mi's words asking her to study hard.
She gritted her teeth and went to the city to find Sun Jun to get a divorce. She returned to the village to farm and raise her two sons by herself, and from time to time she found time to review her old books.
Opportunities always come to those who are prepared. In the first year after the resumption of the college entrance examination, Chunyan, who had prepared for several years in advance, was admitted to the best university in the province.
From then on, she started the habit of sending things to Tian Mi every year.
In Chunyan's words, if it weren't for her cousin's reminder, she wouldn't have the good life she has now.
So she had to be grateful, even though the gifts were not expensive, they were her sincere thoughts.
Tian Mi was not the kind of person who only took and did not give, so naturally he had to give gifts to the other party in return. After a few years of such exchanges, they developed some feelings for each other.
This time too, Chunyan, who had not started her postgraduate studies but had already started working, sent her a big bag of gifts.
The letter also explained that Sun Jun, who had run away that year, learned from one of his educated youth friends that his ex-wife, whom he despised, was not only not sad because of his abandonment, but was admitted to a top university.
Ruo also joined the municipal government department and became an official of moderate importance.
In contrast, his family conditions were very ordinary. The whole family was squeezed into an old house of about 30 square meters and had to sleep on the floor.
But living in the city sounded respectable, and he dreamed of going home. He hated the days in the loess of the Northern Dynasties.
Later, he finally found a job and returned to Suzhou, but he could only work as a hard-working loader. He also married a divorced woman with a child, and his life was miserable.
People...are afraid of comparison. When times get tough, Sun Jun thinks of his life as a master in the countryside.
To be fair, he lived better during the years of his marriage in the countryside than in the big city.
All the good things in the house were given to him, and he seldom took care of the work in the fields, let alone the children. He was well-fair and the only thing he was not satisfied with was his wife's status as a peasant.
But things are different now. His ex-wife has done well for herself and not only became a city dweller, but also a cadre. Isn't Sun Jun's mind becoming restless?
In his opinion, Chunyan had not looked for him for so many years, so she must be waiting for him to come back.
No matter what, he is the biological father of the two children, so the original wife is naturally better than the second marriage.
With this idea in mind, Sun Jun found an excuse and sneaked into the countryside...
The result was naturally a severe beating.
Not only because Chunyan would never be attracted to him again, but also because she was recently introduced to a match.
