I'm really just the village head

Dim, low earth-walled house, about seven or eight square meters.

The eight immortals table with mottled paint.

In the center of the table, a kerosene lamp made of an empty ink bottle was lit on the remaining glass bottle containing the canned fruit of chopped peppers.

The wick is very short.

On the flame not much bigger than soybean grains, a black smoke went straight up.

Around the table of the Eight Immortals, there is a long bench.

"Father, I won't read it again. It's a good thing to go through the door. I am a man, and I should take responsibility. The fourth child is married with a second marriage and will be a stepmother to a 10-year-old baby, which makes people pierce the backbone."

Under the faint light, Liu Chunlai, who was sitting with his back to the door, put the pu fan used to drive mosquitoes and bamboo strips on the table, looking firmly at the opposite side, a huge line from his forehead to his ear. Liu Fuwang with scars and folds on his face.

The wind brought by the fan made the faint light flicker.

Liu Fuwang didn't say a word.

Holding a foot-long pipe smoking rod in one hand, he kept chirping.

The leaf smoke in the pipe, Liu Fuwang took a sip, the fire flashed brightly, and a cloud of smoke was ejected from his mouth and disappeared into the darkness.

"You have a better future when you take college entrance examinations and become a national cadre. If you fail to pass the examination, you know the consequences..."

Until the smoke in the smoke pot burned out, Liu Fuwang turned the pipe smoke pole, and the smoke pot knocked on the edge of the Eight Immortals table before speaking in a deep voice, still not looking at Liu Chunlai.

At the same time, with the faint light of the oil lamp, he spread out the oil paper cigarette pouch placed on the table and continued to wrap the leaf tobacco.

"Father, I'm not the one. I haven't had any qualifiers this year."

Liu Chunlai sighed while looking at the one-foot-long pipe smoking rod that the old man had put on the table.

He was afraid that the old man would hit him with a cigarette stick.

The family's economy is so bad that Liu Chunlai dare not choose to review again and fight for the next year's college entrance examination.

Heaven thief, let him, an entrepreneur who managed to survive, went back to the 80s when opportunities were everywhere.

Before Liu Chun came to take a step towards becoming the richest man in the world, reality gave him a heavy blow-a new identity that hadn’t taken the college entrance examination for six years after resuming the college entrance examination in 1977. This time, even The pre-test has not been passed, and in order to allow him to continue his studies, the old lady is going to marry his fourth sister to a cripple in her thirties who has killed her daughter-in-law and brought a son.

The shamelessness of this Liu Chun came to the world, weeping.

After the six-year college entrance examination, Liu Chunlai definitely wanted to be a national cadre and contribute to the cause of socialist modernization, but he also knew that he was not that piece of material. He fought fiercely for the six-year college entrance examination. The real situation was that he did not go home to farm!

A while ago, the sixth pre-examination results for the college entrance examination came out, and Liu Chunlai was unable to even take the college entrance examination this year.

Wang Qingshan, the village chief of Wangjia Village who had been married for five years, retired directly.

Liu Chunlai, who became the 348th bachelor in the village, naturally felt shameless and jumped into the river Lintang at the entrance of the village.

Thus, 42-year-old Liu Chunlai became 24-year-old Liu Chunlai.

The old couple Liu Fuwang gave birth to four babies.

Liu Chunlai is the boss, the second sister Liu Xiaqing and the third sister Liu Qiuju are married, and the fourth sister Liu Xue will take the college entrance examination next year.

Now, Liu Xue, because of her ineffective elder brother, faces dropping out of school and marrying someone, while others are still in class, she is called home to prepare for her family...

Here is the most famous village in a radius of one hundred li-Hulu Village.

It's famous for many reasons.

When the Eight Great Kings entered Sichuan, they were entrenched in the Red Army until the Long March. They resisted grain and tax but protected the people from Mopanzhai. Some people in the village took the lead in the road protection movement during the warlord period. During the warlord's melee, many strong men in the village took the initiative to sell themselves to warlords and obtain settlement allowances. Then fled again, and then conscripted and went to get the relocation allowance; the underage children in the Sichuan Army’s Anti-Japanese Village were all on the battlefield...

All are the reasons for the shock of Hulu Village.

The most famous reason is that it is the problem that makes the leaders of the county and township governments at all levels a big problem-poor, many bachelors!

In the small meeting of the General Assembly, leaders at all levels call names, how can they not be famous?

In the past, Liu Fuwang, who had killed devils, fought Lao Jiang, and bayonet with the American emperor on the Korean battlefield, declined the government's stay, silently returned to his hometown in the countryside, and devoted himself to the cause of building a new socialist countryside.

Since then, Liu Fuwang has been the secretary of the village chief.

As the first person in the village, how can Liu Fuwang not bother his son as a bachelor?

The girl does not worry about marrying, but the son cannot marry a daughter-in-law. As the village party secretary and chief, how can he lead the work of the members in the future?

His wife Yang Aiqun sighed at her husband Liu Fuwang day and night, and she was afraid that her son would be a bachelor for a lifetime. He broke the old Liu family's incense. With a hot head and heart, she actually agreed to marry Liu Xue to Guo Yuan, the head of the grain station of Wangshan Commune next door. The Lin family died, his wife and his lame son Guo Wang for several years.

There is no other reason, the Guo family is willing to give 400 yuan as a gift, and can arrange Liu Chun to come to the grain station as a temporary worker at any time, and then slowly turn right...

How can Liu Chunlai accept it calmly?

The young girl gave up the dream of college, married a 35-year-old cripple who beat his wife to death, and became a stepmother for a 10-year-old child. The gift in exchange for him to repeat?

If he were not the party involved, Liu Chunlai would think that this is a joke on the Internet to attract traffic.

However, this is not the Internet age, it is the early 1980s.

The beginning of reform and opening up!

The early days of crossing the river by feeling the stones.

"Father, didn't you expect me to come back and work with you before and lead our village out of poverty? I am also a party member! I want to take the lead."

When Liu Chunlai saw the old man wrapped the leaf smoke, he estimated the possibility of the old man's hands and spoke carefully.

"Slap~"

His forehead was a little itchy and he slapped him. Liu Chunlai spread his hand and put it under the oil lamp. The corpse of a mosquito was lying in a pool of blood.

"Get out of poverty? How can you take them out of poverty without going to university? I have come back in 56 years. Until now, I haven't gotten the village out of poverty in 27 years. Instead, it is getting poorer and poorer. You are even worse than Lao Tzu. Awesome?"

Liu Fuwang's eyes widened in anger and his breathing was a little short.

The smoking rod in his hand kept tapping the edge of the Eight Immortals table.

This is a harbinger of preparations for armed suppression.

"Father, the country has reformed and opened up! Our minds must also be reformed and opened up. The food in the ground can only become poorer and poorer!"

Liu Chunlai's mouth twitched, staring at the smoking pole, speaking quickly.

He dare not say that he has read more than Liu Fuwang at least. He has been in high school for 7 years.

Now with him Liu Chunlai, there are 348 bachelors in the whole brigade, and it's not counted as someone under 22 who has no target.

The whole brigade, 6 villager groups, 2237 people in the village, 348 singles...

The four teams of the Happiness Commune are the poorest village with the most singles within a hundred miles.

Every time there was a meeting in the county, the leaders of the commune couldn't lift their heads; every time the commune had a meeting, Liu Fuwang, the leader of the four brigade, also couldn't raise their heads.

It's not that Liu Fuwang didn't work hard. When he studied Daqing in industry and Dazhai in agriculture, he opened up wasteland and built fields, built canals on the top of the mountain, and started small steelmaking workshops. Liu Fuwang led the whole team for decades, but the village became poorer and poorer.

The brigade does not have any mineral resources, there are few fields and many people.

When studying agriculture in Dazhai, Liu Fuwang led a whole brigade of men, women and children to build fields on stones, adding more than 400 mu of land to the village.

As a result, the population has surged from 1,457 to 2,237 now...

No matter how much Liu Fuwang took with his fellow villagers, they couldn't fill the belly of more than 2,000 people.

Now, the contract has reached the households.

In other villages, food production has increased sharply, enough for the country and enough for the collective. What is left not only allows everyone to fill their belly, but also pulls a few feet of cloth to buy new clothes for the elderly and children in the family during the New Year. Can always cut two catties of meat to relieve gluttons.

The four teams have also been assigned to their families.

There are many people and little land. Most of them are dry land with no water source on the mountains, and the crops rely on the earth to be weak and dry.

Every year, public grain is paid, and all the grain output in the village is not enough to be paid to the state, let alone the township level and the village level.

The entire village is even poorer after the households are guaranteed.

We are still in the days when we rely on re-sales for food, relief for money, and loans for production.

Neither the leaders of the commune nor the leaders of the county were willing to mention the four teams of the Happy Commune.

"Nonsense, farmers don't plan to eat from the ground, do they still sit in the office and commute like in the city?" Liu Fuwang snorted coldly and raised his brow. "The factories in the county don't recruit people from the village. Too many accounts..."

"Father, reform and opening up, the country has always emphasized invigorating the rural economy, this is a big policy. At the beginning of the year, the provincial general assembly did not all say that it would accelerate the reform of the rural commercial system, fully invigorate the circulation of rural commodities, and vigorously support various professional households and families. How many small industries? Regardless of Dazhai or Xiaogang Village, don’t you have to toss you if you can’t survive? As long as we work hard, we can become like Dazhai and Xiaogang Village, and let the whole country learn. Then you will be a book When going on stage, the county magistrate must greet all the way..."

Liu Chunlai has been in this era for a long time, but the memory of fusion allows him to understand the old man who is over half a hundred years old in front of him.

In the 1980s, gold was everywhere.

Will it be difficult to become a village of 100 million yuan like Huaxi Village?

Of course, the issue of village development is something later.

Now we must solve the immediate trouble and not let the remaining sister be pitted.

A good girl, studying for college, becoming a national cadre is king.

Who do you marry, what stepmother do you want?

No matter how shameless Liu Chunlai is, he will not allow such a thing to happen under his nose.

The stove next to it.

The roof is made of thatch, and the surrounding walls made of low bamboo strips are also not high.

A faint light was revealed in the cracks in the wall.

More, it is dense and choking smoke.

"Cough cough cough..."

Inside the room, there was a constant coughing sound.

Inside the smoky room.

An oil lamp, also made of an empty ink bottle, was hung on a smoked chimney.

As the lid was lifted, the heat rising from the boiling water in the large iron pot on the stove made the weak flames sway and extinguished at any time.

"Bad girl, what do you do with all the brown ones? How can the outer shell be dyed red? It's like this at home, and when you come to your in-laws, you still have to be tempered, so you can live better then?"

Yang Aiqun looked at the brown egg in the wooden half-liter on the black stovetop, not beating.

Seeing Liu Xue, the four girls in a daze, sitting at the door of the stove and fiddled with the moist firewood in the stove pond with the tongs in his hands from time to time.

Wearing a shirt with various colored patches on his shoulders and elbows, washed out colored checkered shirt and two braids, Liu Xue sat at the door of the stove meditating on his own affairs, ignoring Yang Aiqun.

The fire light slowly ignited in the stove hole, and the fire light showed Liu Xue's dull eyes.

The moist thatch finally burned up, but it quickly went out, leaving a reddish black and gray, just like Liu Xue's mood at this time.

"Hmm~Hmm~"

On the side of the stove, behind a door made of strips, the sound of pig hoops came to remind the owner that they were still hungry.

"Why are you in a daze? Hurry up and get the white-shelled eggs, what do you say to raise you, pigs don't know how to feed them one day!

Yang Aiqun became even more angry when he heard the pig crying, turned around, and headed towards the pigpen with a bamboo stick that was placed at the door of the pigpen and shook.

"Wow~pop..."

"If you have a plague, you can't feed it all day, so you know it's called..."

"Wow~"

Soon, the sound of the police stick hitting the pig, Yang Aiqun's scolding, and the pig's howling were intertwined.

"It's just right to have a fever, and I can still eat meat. I fight pigweed every day, and it doesn't get any benefits at all. It's cheaper. Liu Chunlai said the dog..." Liu Xue had a look in her eyes, as if pigs were really going to have a disease. same."Mom, you said that it's useless to break the sky. I want to go to college and get married. I call Liu Chun to marry."

This immediately made Yang Aiqun's bad mood worse. This night, the four girls made her very hot, and she was afraid that tomorrow's mother-in-law's family would come and this girl would make trouble.

Now that I listened, I rushed out of the pigpen.

"Swine fever, there is a piglet for you to eat! What college entrance examination? It is cheaper to get into other people's homes..." Yang Aiqun cursed for a long time.

Liu Xue did not say a word.

After scolding for a while, Yang Aiqun looked at Liu Xue, who was staring at him sarcastically. He quickly softened and said with earnestness: "Xue, your brother is 24 this year, if he can't be a Home, the incense of our old Liu's family broke..."

"The dog Liu Chunlai said is not my brother! He is not worthy! He is not worthy of being a human! Yang Aiqun, you said that breaking the sky is useless today! If I have to marry the lame and be a stepmother for a 10-year-old baby? Yes, carry my body. go with!"

After speaking, Liu Xue threw his hand tongs into the ash trough, and the fire did not burn.

"Snow, your brother is 24. He just fell out of the rankings and was retired by the Wang family. He finally got his life back. When he was a child, your brother carried you on his back. You forgot all these things... Although the children of the Guo family were almost old, Some, it’s a second marriage again... But they don’t have to go hungry. Besides, his family is willing to give 400 yuan as a gift and arrange a job for you. Even if your brother does not review, the money can open the door..."

"Oh, Yang Aiqun, are you selling a girl for the 400 beauties? Your son was born to you, and I was born to a dog? You sell it and sell it? I tell you, don’t think about it! Tonight, either I will die or Liu Chun will die. Before I die, I will kill Liu Chunlai!"

Liu Xue coaxed her eyes and snarled and jumped up, jumped to the edge of the chopping board, grabbed the handle of the kitchen knife, and rushed out when she lifted the dazzling kitchen knife.

Yang Aiqun didn't react for a while.

Seeing Liu Xue holding a knife, her legs softened, fearing that her daughter would really cut her son, she rushed out.

"Woo..."

The old yellow dog raised by Liu Xue saw his master come out and rushed up to act like a baby. Liu Xue, who was carrying a kitchen knife, kicked him several meters away.

He can only howl in the dark with a grieved expression.

"Liu Chun come, get out, you make me unable to live, don't live to harm others..."

Liu Xue, who was carrying a kitchen knife, kicked open the door of the hall made of strips.
